Is there a backup program I can install on a USB device that I can use to backup my computer without installing anything on my computer, and is easy to use?

There is a portable app called Toucan which will do what I think you are after. It can be found at https://www.portableapps.com
I've never used it but it claims to be able to synchronize, backup and secure your data. Might be worth a look as there seem to be few others out there that will run from a pen drive.0
