Documents and other data files that you create as you work are
typically stored in the My Documents folder. You may also
wish to back up other important data files stored elsewhere on
your hard disk drive, for example:
❖ E-mail files and settings—for Outlook, Outlook Express,
or other e-mail apps. Visit the vendors’ Web sites
(www.microsoft.com, for example) for detailed
instructions.
❖ Newsgroup files and settings—for Outlook Express, or
other newsgroup readers. Visit the vendors’ Web sites for
detailed instructions.
❖ Other data files. If you do not find an application’s data
files in any of the folders within the My Documents folder,
check the application’s options or preferences settings to
discover the locations of the files.
7 When you have finished copying files to the CD window,
click File, Write these files to CD.
8 A CD Writing Wizard will appear, prompting for a name
for the CD. You may accept the default name, or enter a
new (more descriptive) name. Click Next to continue.
9 The CD Writing Wizard will now write the selected files
to the CD. It is best not to use the computer for any other
tasks during this operation, so as not to interrupt it.
10 Finally, click Finish. The CD will be ejected. It should
contain all of the files you have selected, but you may
easily verify this by placing the CD back into the drive,
and viewing the list of files.
