Backing up data
We recommend the software tool SIMATIC IPC Image & Partition Creator (as of V3.4) to
back up data under Windows. This tool provides convenient and efficient functions for
backing up and restoring the full content of memory cards, hard disks and individual
partitions (images).
The SIMATIC IPC Image & Partition Creator can be ordered using the Siemens online
ordering system (
https://mall.industry.siemens.com
). For more information about SIMATIC
IPC Image & Partition Creator, refer to its product documentation.

Note
If your IPC no longer boots, e.g. due to a crash during a BIOS update, contact your local
SIEMENS contact person.
