What data should I
backup?We recommend backing up only those files that
cannot be easily replaced. Generally, these are files
that you create and save to your hard drive. Files you create
will usually have a name that you assign.
Do backup your
personal files. For Example:
Created and/or named by you
Difficult to replace, like your financial files
Used frequently, like your Internet bookmarks
Special to you, like your digital pictures
Don’t
backup up
operating system files or program files. For example:
Operating System files
Application or Program files (files with the .EXE, .DLL, or .INI
extensions)
Temporary files (files with the .TMP extension)
Scan Disk Error files (files with the .CHK extension)
