    Thanks Chris, for once someone who explains everything and doesn’t assume the people viewing already know what their doing, you gave very clear instruction which helped a dinosaur like me to get me photos backed up on a usb stick, thank you so much 👍

    Chris, sorry to ask such a stupid question but can you tell me what type of USB stick it is that I need? I really am clueless. I need to save all my photo's and videos that i recorded on my laptop which I think may be failing and if it goes I will lose all the stuff. Thank you for posting this video

    • @cwtek1
      @cwtek1  3 года назад +1

      If its all of your photos and videos and how much space is needed to back them up is anyones guess, I would recommend getting a 1TB external hard drive rather than a USB Stick I would be surprised if you would need anything larger.

    Am I right in understanding that when someone says “copy to the root directory of your USB stick” all they really mean is copy the file to the stick as you’ve just shown?

    • @cwtek1
      @cwtek1  2 года назад

      The root is to the top of the drive i.e not in any folder’s.

      Yes you can send multiple files You have to use either the shift or the CTRL key when selecting those files.

      it really depends on the MP3 player it’self some allow this some require the files to be in a certain file structure.

      @@Me-zd4hv You can download a fresh copy of windows 10 from Microsoft just google Windows 10 iso, as far as I know there is no free version of Windows 10 however you can upgrade from an earlier version of Windows 7 or 8 or 8.1 free of charge still. If you want to copy Windows 10 to another computer then you could try using Macrium reflect and image to an external hard drive then restore to another PC.
