Windows (Microsoft) Backup
Most of the Windows users think of backing up their important data some time after it is so late to do anything. If you feel that you really require a backup tool after a system problem. It may be a hard drive crash or a malicious application like a virus infecting and corrupting our important Office suite files. So, we need to opt for immediate data backup with the pace of our projects, not post their completion.
Luckily, backing up important data and information is neither time consuming nor difficult. Actually the entire process takes only a few minutes in a week on an average. You can let Windows do all the work automatically with NTBackup tool.
NTBackup is an inbuilt backup utility in Microsoft Windows that uses a proprietary backup file format (BKF) to back up your files. Using this tool, you can backup your data on different storage media like hard drive, tape, Zip disks and floppy disks.
This Windows Backup tool helps you create copy of the data on your hard drive. In case if the original data from your hard drive is accidentally deleted, overwritten or gets inaccessible due to hard drive failure, you could use these copies for restoring your lost data.
For instance, you could use Microsoft Windows backup to create duplicate copies of data on hard drive and then archive them on another storage media. The storage media could be a logical drive like hard drive or a separate device like removable disk or whole library of tapes or hard drives organized in a media pool.
It supports many operating system features such as backing up computer system state. You can schedule and automate your backup process using this Windows backup utility.
NTBackup supports NTFS hard links, Encrypting File system, alternate data streams, mounted drives, remote storage information, disk quota information, and junction points. It can save NTFS permissions, ownership settings, audit entries, follow the Archive bit attributes on files and can create incremental and differential backups as well as ASR (Automate System Recovery).
