Archiving files

You can use McAfee Data Backup to archive a copy of the files on
your computer to CD, DVD, USB drive, external hard drive, or
network drive. Archiving your files in this way makes it easy for
you to retrieve information in case of accidental data loss or
damage.
Before you start archiving files, you must choose your default
archive location (CD, DVD, USB drive, external hard drive, or
network drive). McAfee has preset some other settings; for
example, the folders and file types that you want to archive, but
you can modify those settings.
After you set the local archive options, you can modify the default
settings for how often Data Backup runs full or quick archives.
You can run manual archives at any time.
