System Backup
The Canvio
®
Personal Cloud software includes a SystemSave™ feature that allows you to
create a bootable rescue media, backup your entire PC, and manage the backups which
you created.
You can use the bootable rescue media to restore your PC to its original condition if there is a major issue
with your PC including a hard drive failure. Therefore, the first important step is to create the bootable
rescue media prior to performing a system backup.
The complete system backup can be used to restore Windows, programs, system settings, and files in
case of a system malfunction or failure.
