McAfee Data Backup

Use Data Backup to avoid accidental loss of your data by
archiving your files to CD, DVD, USB drive, external hard drive, or
network drive. Local archiving allows you to archive (back up)
your personal data to CD, DVD, USB drive, external hard drive, or
network drive. This provides you with a local copy of your
records, documents, and other materials of personal interest in
case of accidental loss.
Before you begin using Data Backup, you can familiarize yourself
with some of the most popular features. Details about
configuring and using these features are provided throughout the
Data Backup help. After browsing the program's features, you
must ensure that you have adequate archive media available to
perform local archives.
Note: SecurityCenter reports critical and non-critical protection
problems as soon as it detects them. If you need help diagnosing
your protection problems, you can run McAfee Virtual
Technician.
