CrashPlan App Version 4.3 And Later
For the CrashPlan app version 4.3 and later, you can install the CrashPlan app per user. This installation allows you to add the mapped drive to your backup file selection just as you would any other drive. If the CrashPlan app is already installed for everyone on your computer, you can completely uninstall the CrashPlan app and reinstall per user instead.
