Which BU setup for full hd restore in case of hd crash?

Post by ebernhard »

Hi! New user here, using Pro trial. I would like to know how to set up a backup so that I can restore to a new hard drive in case of a crash. I would like to be able to restore EVERYTHING if possible - software and files - with I guess only the OS installed on the new drive. I am using old P4 1.9Ghz, WXP Pro, and have 2nd internal drive D as well as external 3rd drive.

THANKS! ...eric

Hi,

Backup4All was not designed for system backup, so you won't be able to restore the operating system.
You should use Backup4all for data files backup only.
We do not recommend to use Backup4all in order to backup system files / installed software.
We encourage users to use it only for their own work: files and folders.
Do you know you can monitor your backups remotely with Backup4all Monitor? You can read more here: https://www.backup4all.com/backup4all-monitor.html
