In order to recover your operating system along with all the settings and applications, you

have to perform a disk backup.

2. In the tree below the Data to back up section, select the items to back up by selecting check

boxes next to the items.

disks and/or volumes, expand the machine item and select check boxes next to the disks and/or

volumes.

Note for Disks/volumes
