Hi John,
Download the developer extension for visual studio from below url.
https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=JLattimer.DynamicsCRMDeveloperExtensions
Create one project or solution in visual studio and connect to the developer extension. When login to the developer extension you will see all the unmanaged solution (With all web resources) in your CRM application .
Select your unmanaged solution and download all the web resources in your local machine and upload to TFS or SVN server.
I think this is the way you can prepare your back up of your all web resources.
You can also export the solution as unmanaged and keep the backup time to time.
Hope this helps.
Thanks, I need an automated way to backup CRM solutions.
Hi Jhon,
I do not know any standard method of automatically backing up solutions in CRM 2016. If you are willing to invest in an upgrade to Dynamics 365, then you can make use of the system backups feature from the Dynamics 365 Admin Center.
I think your best bet is to store your solutions and code in a version control system such as TFS.
You might be able to do it with Visual Studio Team Services and Azure CI.
I´ve hear that with PowerShell there is an option, do you know something about it?
Something like this for example, but with code to backup what is made to CRM

There are lots. TFS, Github. Literaly plenty of options.
