Backup

The Backup program helps you protect data from accidental loss due to hardware or storage failure. Using Backup, you can create a duplicate copy of the data on your hard disk and archive the data on another storage device such as a hard disk or a tape. You can back up data to a wide variety of removable, high-density storage media. Also, Backup is integrated with Remote Storage for archiving.

With Backup wizards you can:

• Make an archived copy of selected files and folders on your hard disk.
• Schedule regular backups to keep your archived data up-to-date.
• Restore the archived files and folders to your hard disk or any other disk you can access.
• Back up Active Directory. You can put a copy of Active Directory store on media for off-site storage.
• Back up offline Remote Storage data, registry settings, and any other mount point data.
