backup

I'm showing an example of one folder from my music collection to demonstrate the problem that I've having. On my main hard drive I've been changing the art for each album (folder) to show a single image of the album cover. I'm doing this by choosing a .jpg of the album cover from the customize...

Guys, I am one of the few remaining windows phone users, but today I turned to Android. The problem is I have a lot of SMS messages that I really need to keep, can I transfer them to an android phone? They are important as they are to be used as evidence in an upcoming court proceeding. Windows...

Best way I know is to make regular backups but store them offline . Got to check your PC is not carrying any malware before backing up for obvious reasons . I am a home user so use a portable SSD . I do not own a NAS . In retrospect I am rather glad I do not need one :rolleyes: NAS are said to...

I have a system that refuses to boot to Windows 10 Professional (64-bit), and I think I need to do a reinstall. The advanced boot options is available, but it will not go into safe mode. I can however get the command line, and it recognizes both robocopy and xcopy. Assume that C is the hard...

Can anyone tell me for sure, with Windows 10 Backup, if I set it to copy a folder (or single files) each night, if nothing has changed in that folder (or file) does Backup still copy it? I want to be sure that copies to a cloud server are minimized. Edit: Also, if a single file in a folder has...

Dear all, Before you can help me here you must understand fundamentally what Bitlocker is about. Bitlocker: ------------------------------------------------------------------- The idea with Bitlocker is that you do not enter a bitlocker password when you boot up. Your TPM does this for you. As...

Yes, I know how to create a System Restore Point with built-in dialog or 'wmic' or Powershell. But I want to know if it is possible to create a System Restore Point with the core Volume Shadow Copy tool "vssadmin" as well? Can I similarly at least perform a Restore from a previously created...

Hey guys, My PC croaked on me what has been 3 years ago now. I tried moving my hard drive to a different computer and that's when I discovered Windows 10 is very particular about what computer it's on with the licensing. Gone are the days apparently of just moving a hard drive to a new...
