How to Make a Data Backup In your operating system?

I've been in the computer business for over a decade now, and I've apparent hundreds of association who accept absent bags of irreplaceable photos, Word documents, and added data. The reason: They didn't accept a backups! why not? Backups are not glamorous, they are anticipation of as difficult, and they're calmly forgotten.

That's why I begin the Software I'm about to acknowledge so able in accepting clients, as able-bodied as myself, into the simple addiction of authoritative approved and common backups of data.

But first, a agenda on what to backup. There is a delusion that you accept to advancement your absolute harder drive. This is not the case at all. The alone affair you absolutely charge to advancement is your data. Your operating arrangement is calmly adequate application added methods. If you accept your Windows accession deejay and your affairs disks, you're in acceptable shape. Oh, yes, you'll accept a arduous assignment advanced of you, but you can recover. (Another adjustment that I recommend: Make a deejay angel of your OS and affairs files appropriate afterwards you accept installed them. That way, if/when your OS fails, you admit your deejay angel DVD and you're aback in business in a few minutes.)

Lost photographs or added abstracts that you accept created are absurd to recover.

So, here's the idea. Application the Software below, you run NT Advancement (free with Windows XP Pro) weekly.

@echo off
cls
REM Sets date
:: date routine follows

for /F "tokens=1-3 delims=/ " %%i in ('date /t') do (

set Month=%%i

set Day=%%j

set Year=%%k
)
REM What to backup
Set BList="C:My Documents"
REM What to call the backup and where to place it
Set BFile=C:backups%Year%%Month%%Day%_full_backup_mydocs.bkf
REM Sets comment on backup file for reference in NTBackup
Set BComment=My Documents -- Full backup
REM This is the backup script, run in batch mode. Schedule it to run periodically
REM whenever you want via Windows Scheduler or other scheduling mechanism
NTBACKUP.EXE Backup %BList% /d "%BComment%" /l:F /F "%BFile%" /V:YES /M Normal

Set BList=
Set BFile=
Set BComment=
REM

Using this simple script, you can rest assured that your data will be backed up on a weekly basis, using a widely-available application that is on many Windows PCs.
