Computer Training: Backup & Restore (Online Access)

This subject isn’t really that exciting…..mostly because backing up your computer is a little time consuming and let's face it…it's work!
But the important thing I must say about it is that it’s a computer essential that most people fail to do, and don’t realize the importance of it until its too late.
I treat the Backup and Restore subject just like I do my insurance policies for my health, car, and home. Many Years ago, I got a low-cost insurance policy on my car to save money, I got into a serious car accident where 2 of us in the car were injured, and I totaled my car. I learned a valuable lesson. I realized the importance of putting my insurance as a priority. I now research everything about my insurance policies and set appropriate values so financially, I never end up in a position as bad as it was after that accident. I’ve had another accident since then, and my business was broken into once, and my home was damaged by a severe weather incident….in all those cases, I had appropriate coverage and I’m very happy to say that everything turned out in my favor in the end.

In a similar way, backing up your computer system, or just the important files off your computer can be likened to a good insurance policy. Just one failed hard drive, spill on your keyboard, or one virus or ransomware attack, and 5-10 or 15 years’ worth of work could disappear in an instant. So, can you see the importance, the value of backing up your system or your files?

In this episode of Ron’s Rules Computer Training Series, we will discuss these important topics.

The importance of backing up your complete computer system, as well as the important files that are on your computer. There are several different theories to these 2 kinds of backups, and there are many different programs you can use to do these 2 functions. Some are free, and some come with a fee, and there are advantages and disadvantages with both.

We will discuss the Windows Backup and Restore utility that is on all Windows Operating systems since Windows 7. We will briefly discuss how many mainstream computer companies also install a second backup system on their computers, there are several third-party backup software's that might be another good option, and then there are several good cloud backups for both system backups and file backups. We will discuss testing your backups, and using restore features.

It’s going to be a busy training, one you will not want to miss! Please join us for this vital episode of Ron’s Rules Computer Training Series.
