1.4 Working with Nero BackItUp

Nero BackItUp is a powerful tool for backing up and restoring data. You have to decide be-

tween saving files and saving entire drives:

If you choose a file backup, the individual files and folders that you select are backed up. If

you want to back up the same files again later, a backup update makes it easier and saves

resources and other things.

If you choose Drive Backup, entire drives

(hard drives and/or partitions) are backed up, in-

cluding the programs and the operating system.

Set up Nero BackItUp jobs, if you want to regularly perform backups.

Nero BackItUp offers you useful features to restore data in case of failure.

With the Nero BackItUp, Nero BackItUp ImageTool offers you another tool for backing up fi-

les and drives. The Nero BackItUp ImageTool is included on the bootable disc that you can

create with Nero BackItUp. With the Nero BackItUp ImageTool, you can back up and restore

drives. This particularly lends itself to backing up on otherwise active drives, since such

drives are inactive when booting the Nero BackItUp ImageTool.
