Backing up your information
You should create your initial backup immediately after initial system setup. As you add new software and
data files, you should continue to back up your system on a regular basis to maintain a reasonably current
backup. Your initial and subsequent backups allow you to restore your data and settings if a failure occurs.
You can back up your information to an optional external hard drive, a network drive, or discs.
Note the following when backing up:
●
Store personal files in the Documents library, and back it up regularly.

Back up templates that are stored in their associated directories.

settings. The screen shot can be a time-saver if you have to reset your preferences.
●
When backing up to discs, number each disc after removing it from the drive.
