First we slide the mouse to the bottom right corner of the screen to bring up the Charm column and select settings, then we find and open the "control panel", here we choose “ System and Security" Save a backup copy of your file via file history”.

































Select “Set Backup> We can back up our system to our custom drive letter. At the same time, we can also back up files to the network, but in general, ordinary users do not use too much.

Setting up the system backup
Of course, when we need to restore the backup, we can also do it here. In addition to the default restore file, we can also choose other backups to restore the file.

Restore System Files
In addition, we can also create a system image or a system repair CD, which is a more secure method, because saving the backup on another disk will not be completely damaged by the hard disk. Do your best.

In addition to system backup, we will also talk about the hard disk partition problem in this issue. Perhaps there are still many netizens who use some CDs or other partitioning tools for partitioning. In fact, the Win8 system itself has a partitioning tool.
Using the Windows key + X combination key, we first call up the system function menu, and then select the "Disk Management" option.







In the open disk management interface, we can see that each partition information of our disk is displayed, as well as what expansion space, free space and unallocated.

Disk Management
Right-click each partition. We can format, compress, delete, etc., or change the drive letter and path. However, some operations are no longer possible on the C drive.
