Backup is the key to keep you away from data loss. Most of the times it happens that you accidentally delete important files, Windows operating system gets damaged, file system gets corrupt, or virus infection makes the files inaccessible. In any of the specified cases, you only come across the data loss if backup is not there. If you have habit to create backup of all of your important documents then you will always be at the safe side. You will never come across data loss. There are generally two ways to keep backup. Mentioned below are the methods that you can use to maintain backup of important documents, videos, music files, software setup, and images:
Manual Backup: During the manual backup, you just copy the data whose backup you want to create and paste the data on any backup device like external hard drive, PAN drive, etc. You can also use CDs or DVDs to create manual backup but for that you must need to have a software, which can burn the required data on CDs or DVDs. The process to create backup on CDs or DVDs may take some time depending on the software quality.
Automated Backup: During the automated backup, you create backup using an automated tool developed to help you backup your important data. While using a software to create backup, you need to follow some steps to efficiently complete the backup process.
