Repairs and upgrades usually keep your files, but things go wrong. Copy documents, photos, desktop files, browser bookmarks and any business data to an external drive or a large flash drive, and to cloud storage if you can. Open a few files from the backup to confirm it worked. Note your software licences and passwords too.
Key takeaways
- Back up before any repair or upgrade.
- Use two places: a drive and the cloud.
- Open a few files to check the backup.
- Note licences and passwords.
