Microsoft Windows XP Professional Resource Kit 2003

Overview

Backup is a tool in Microsoft Windows XP Professional that allows users to back up and restore data. The ability to restore data from backup media in the event of an emergency is critical to the success of an organization.

Backup uses the Removable Storage feature to manage the storage devices attached to your system. Because backing up the data on your system is one of the most important aspects of data management, Windows XP Professional integrates Backup with Removable Storage to help you protect your data.
