Great video. Very helpful. I had used Acronis in the past and I had SOOO many issues. The scheduled backups almost never worked. Lots of backups were not accessible. I just never thought of using the native Win backup tool. It seems so easy. I’ll give it a try.
Will backup overwrite the previous backup so there is only the one most recent backup on the external drive? Or does it create a separate backup every time so that it fills up the entire drive?
Thanks very much! So with the auto backup you have to keep your external drive plugged in all the time? Is that what everybody does? Personally I dont like anything plugged in all the time, I just do a one off back up. Isnt that ok?
Welcome. Windows Backup is incremental and you should keep the drive plugged. If you want, you can plug the drive in your router. I explain how to do this here. Note that routers usually don't support partitions greater then 4TB. ruclips.net/video/kW75BHaPUjE/видео.html
Thank you for a great and very informative video! I've been researching for weeks now trying to find a solution to my needs and hope you can offer a suggestion to help. I know there are many others with the same question I have. I'm trying to find a way to backup my windows 10 SETTINGS so if my PC crashes or if I get a new PC I can transfer all the settings. I spent a consif6 amount of time setting them up and configuring windows 10 exactly the way I want it but can't figure out how to back that up. All backup options appear to be related to files but not actual "settings". I've read there is only 1 way to do this by having a microsoft account and enabling SYNC. I want to avoid anything to do with a microsoft account or syncing as microsoft has a lack of privacy. Suggestions are so appreciated!!!
hi , i hope u can reply , after i restore the backup files in hdd and i transfer the os system into ssd for upgrading , will the backup folder missing?
@@KnowledgeSharingTech what i mean is i backup the files in my hdd , and then if i want to upgrade into ssd right , i transfer only the os system files in my ssd but the other none , so can i restore back my backup files in my hdd?
When you do subsequent backups, does the computer only update for changes? So stuff deleted would be overwritten and stuff unchanged would be left. Other words, the computer doesn't do a full copy each time, right?
Why are there 2 or 3 backup methods in windows 10? I always back up from the one that says backup windows 7. It's so confusing and the other day was my first restore in over 30 years. I could never find the files to restore when I did it in windows 95, 98, xp, and 7 and now 10. This helped me understand it better and I'll save it for next week when I have ro reinstall windows 10 pro that bestbuy screwed up my computer and took over administrator of everything. They turned my computer into a public access computer. I had to do a lot of experimenting with properties and still can't get my saved files on my desktop to open up on the internet. I think there system is corrupted. Never had problems with my 13 year old Hp 7000 tower pentium i7 first gen.
I'd accidentally deleted my old photos and videos from my old computer. Would I still be able to recover my old photos and videos from my new computer? Please help me.
I got a old 110gb ssd where my windows is innstalled etc. and a 2 TB HDD wich i store games and stuff. Just recently bought a new 1 TB SSD wich i want my daily software on, FL studio, Steam and other gaming stuff. Now i just wanted to back up all my music and Delete everything else and to make my 1 TB SSD main hardrive. What is the best solution for me? Thanks for help !
@@KnowledgeSharingTech my laptop is showing 100% disk usage...I have tried following things but it didn't help :- Disable windows search Disable super fetch Update drivers Update windows Temporarily disable antivirus Kindly do help...my laptop is lagging allot .
all of my files are empty except I have a file that says "owner" and it has all the files in it. My name file is empty. Wow, I go over each minute by minute and back and forth and still it does not stick in my brain. And my file won't stay up so I can do it while you talk. How will I ever learn this. duh.
Sir, this a very good and informative videos. But I have some question. I have tried to back up but there are total backup 291.49 gb. But when I will start restore then. How I will use the device. Cause there are no 291 gb pen drive. I took the backup another external hdd. please help I am waiting for your reply.
And how to restore deleted folder?Deleted file you restore if you open the folder and click "restor privious versions",but what if this filder which you are suposed to use to restore data is deleted?How do you restor It?
The backup is not encrypted and not compressed, so simply open the disk where the backup was done and copy back the deleted folder to its original location
Can you use your computer while it's backing up to an external hd? Is there a way to check the progress of the backup other than just watching to see if the light is still blinking?

I like this method but I wish they could change the frequency of back up to once a week. daily is just too frequent for me.
Yes I agree

What if I want to restore to a brand new Windows 10 system. Will that be seamless to restore, or do I have to go through any config changes?

Question, after the first full backup, will the next backup do just the incremental?
Yes

Hi, use an external hard drive.
And how to restore deleted folder?Deleted file you restore if you open the folder and click "restor privious versions",but what if this filder which you are suposed to use to restore data is deleted?How do you restor It?
The backup is not encrypted and not compressed, so simply open the disk where the backup was done and copy back the deleted folder to its original location
Or use the same process of restoring files and folders, but click on "restore previous versions" at the folder containing the one you lost.
Does it need to be an external hard drive? Or could it be an internal one such as WD Black 10TB?
It can be internal
@@KnowledgeSharingTech Thank you so much for responding quickly 😁
isn't much easier to go to recover them straight from the recycle bin?
What if you already emptied the recycle bin or what if your hard drive crashes?
So could I restore an app
No, if you want to restore apps you need to follow this video: ruclips.net/video/nXEqhBIHUGc/видео.html

Can you use your computer while it's backing up to an external hd? Is there a way to check the progress of the backup other than just watching to see if the light is still blinking?
Yes you can use your computer while it is backing up. No way of checking the progress
