How to Use Windows 7's Backup Tools in Windows 8?
I want to create a desktop icon so I can directly access the so-called
'windows 7 backup' that apparently is included in windows 8. It is there, and I can execute it, but I had to search for it. Can I make a shortcut? Thanks BF |

Can I make a shortcut? Thanks BF Yes. I forgot how, but I had to bump around the Windows 8 Control Panel interfaces to finally find the defrag icon (exactly the same crap I HATED about Windows 7 [Home Premium, which came loaded on the machine] and then I sent a shortcut to the desktop... maybe it was a right-click interface. Shoot, I might have done it from the *\Windows\ folder... I also sent a task manager shortcut to desktop via that method. I mean, WTF is up that "improvement" to the 3-finger salute? (If you're using a touch screen, you probably have to put your BUTTOCKS up to the screen. NO! I take that back. Microsoft are not that type of peeple. Are they?) In hinny-sight, this defeats my objective to assimilate teh logic being perpetuated by the Microsoft genuises who promulgated this arrangement. (There should be immediate and credible scientific research to see if the latest rash of mass-murder-shooters were using Window 7 or 8, and then if there's any intentional or unintentional subliminal and/or overt brain programming going on via innocent usages of these "new" operating systems and/or networks.... etc. Mostly because Windows XP worked near perfectly, so why not just keep improving it?! Note for literalists: the final question was either rhetorical or ironic. I'm not sure which, because I'm not a grammar-Gnat-zee.) It's the future, so we MUST embrace it. Or, just be older and bitter about it.... -- I AM Bucky Breeder, (*(^; and the world DID NOT end on December 21st, 2012... because the dreaded USA fiscal cliffs were just a bunch of leetle seesys making noisy leetle seesy roadbumps...
