I hope you are not reading this because your computer has failed and now you don’t have any access to your years of pictures and documents. Whew! thank goodness for that, no need to panic then.
If you have an issue with lost data, then I’ll cover that in another post.
So, how does one backup data and to what? The options are to an external hard- drive, memory stick, or on a secure cloud storage.
Cloud storage, this could be a service that is offered by Microsoft and is known as OneDrive. access to this cloud based offline site is through using Microsoft Office and their subscription service, you can find the details at microsoft.com/office
An external device can be used to backup data such as an external hard drive or a pen drive, if it’s a large amount of data then I would suggest you use an external hard drive. To back-up to this drive use Windows 10 Backup which you will find in Update & Security and then Backup. Connect the hard drive and select “backup using file history”.
