View Full Version : Backing Up Files to Partitioned Hard Drive

I'd like to back up all my folders and files now on C:/ to
the partition, F:/. What's the BEST approach?

I'm afraid that doing a DISC COPY will redefine "F". And
when I do a COPY C:/*.* TO F:/, I get only a limited number
of files copied over.

Thanks, Charlie

You can use the Backup Utility included with Windows XP. It is not
installed by default. You have to add it through Control Panel.
Ask a follow-up question if you need additional help.
