Recently, I upgraded my operating system to Windows 10. I was looking for a new way to back up all my critical files in case of data loss. So, is there any effective way to do it on Windows 10?

There are several ways available to back up all your files on Windows 10, but I'd like to discuss the two most simple and effective ways here.

The first approach is to use a safe and reliable backup tool like EaseUS Todo Backup. EaseUS Todo Backup is a useful, multi-purpose backup program for Windows 11, 10, 8, and 7, which may help you back up PC game saves. It can assist you in creating automatic backups of files, systems, disks, computer applications, and so on. It also allows you to create scheduled backups to back up game save files.

EaseUS Todo Backup may improve the intelligence of your game saves backup by employing services like incremental and differential backups, backup compression, encryption backup, and others to help you save more storage space.

Here is what you should try to back up all your files:

  • To begin the backup process, click the Select backup contents button.
  • Four data backup categories are listed: File, Disk, OS, and Mail. Choose File.
  • Lists of both local and network files are shown on the left-hand side of the screen.
  • Follow the screen's guidance and choose where you want to store the backup.
  • You can store the backup file on your computer or a network-attached storage device (NAS).
  • EaseUS Todo Backup enables customers to store backup copies of their files on a third-party cloud drive or cloud storage.
  • Click on Backup Now to start a backup.  When the backup process is done, it will display as a card on the left-hand side of the screen. 

Another way is to apply the File History feature in Windows 10 to back up your files. However, it takes more time than using the backup software, and it suffers high risks of losing data. You should do as follows:

Select Start > Settings > Update & Security > Backup > Add a Drive, and then choose an external drive or network location for your backups.

So download EaseUS Todo Backup and start your backup now! If you have any problem, feel free to consult the live chat.
