Schedule backups
To schedule backups:
1. Select Start > All Programs > HP Backup & Recovery >
HP Backup Scheduler.
The “Backup Scheduler” page opens.
2. Click Next.
3. Schedule recovery points at specific intervals (daily, weekly,
or monthly) or at specific events, such as at system start or

further define the settings.
A summary of your recovery point settings is displayed.

Recover the system
HP Backup and Recovery Manager analyzes the hard drive and
creates a dedicated hard drive recovery partition on the hard drive
large enough to store a copy of the full factory image. You choose
whether you want to store that copy on the recovery partition, on
another drive, or on external recovery discs.
✎
Before using HP Backup and Recovery Manager, try repairing
the system by running Windows System Restore. For more
information, select Start > Help and Support, and then search
for “System Restore.”
