Recovery after a system failure is as good as your most recent backup. As you add new software and
data files, you should continue to back up your system on a regular basis to maintain a reasonably
current backup.
Your computer includes tools provided by HP to help you safeguard your information and retrieve it if
ever needed.
Creating backups
1. Create restore media immediately after you set up the computer. For more information, see the
“Performing a system recovery” section.
2. As you add files, routinely create a backup of your system and personal information.
Backing up your information

manually back up your information to an optional external drive, a network drive, or discs. Back up
your system at the following times:
●
At regularly scheduled times
●
Before the computer is repaired or restored
●
Before you add or modify hardware or software
