"Perfect" is perhaps a greater misstatement than "POS". <bg>

The perfect solution for the OP would a replacement Add-On for his
cherished CopyProjectLite. 

We both agree that a sustained development effort needs a SCM/SCCS.
Personally I can't imagine developing without one. The idea of
managing backups with a cluster of zip files - gives me the Willies
<shudder>. However, the OP has apparently gotten along just fine with
his zip files for years.

The OP said he was going to give VSS a trial. What's the odds on him
coming back and agreeing it is a POS?
