Windows 10 offers several options for personal data backup. Depending on their intended usage, each of these techniques varies a little. For example, you can use Backup and Restore, manually copy files to an external hard drive, sync files to the cloud, and use professional backup software, like EaseUS Todo Backup.

As for the best way to back up a Windows 10 computer, undoubtedly, using professional backup software, like EaseUS Todo Backup, stands out.

As you mentioned, you want to create a full backup. Against such a backdrop, you can only use Backup and Restore and professional backup software to help you create a full backup.

Backup and Restore is a Windows built-in backup program that can help you create a system image for data protection. You need an external drive to create a system image using Backup and Restore.

• Open Settings.
• Click Update & Security.
• Click Backup.
• Click the "Go to Backup and Restore (Windows 7)" Under "Looking for an older backup?"
• Click the "Create a system image".
• Then, you can follow the instructions to create a system image.

Another way to create a full backup is using EaseUS Todo Backup. It is a professional backup tool for Windows 11/10/8/7. It can help you automatically back up files, systems, disks, etc. In addition, it can also help you to create a full, differential, and incremental backup.

Creating a full backup once a week is time-consuming. Instead, you can use EaseUS Todo Backup to help you create a full backup and then an incremental one. This will be more effort-saving.
