Configuring Backup Options

If you choose Backup Files, Vista will walk you through choosing a destination to backup to (again- this is typically an external USB hard drive or a CD / DVD recorder), and then choosing the drives, folders, or files that you want to include in your backup.

Note: If you have already configured Backup Files, clicking on the Backup Files button will instantly initiate a backup. To modify the configuration, you instead need to click on the Change Settings link below the Backup Files button.
