Backing up your information

Recovery after a system failure is as complete as your most current backup. You should create your
initial backup immediately after software setup. As you add new software and data files, you should
continue to back up your system on a regular basis to maintain a reasonably current backup.
You can back up individual files or folders to an optional external hard drive or to a network drive.
Note the following when backing up:
●
Store personal files in the My Documents folder, and back it up periodically.
● Back up templates stored in their associated programs.
●
Save customized settings that appear in a window, toolbar, or menu bar by taking a screen shot
of your settings. The screen shot can be a time saver if you have to reset your preferences.
