  • Windows Backup

    From Kurt Weiske@618:300/16 to All on Tue Sep 19 08:14:00 2023
    Since we're talking about backup...

    I'm on Windows 10 22H2, and in the last round of updates noticed that in
    my start menu there's a link to Windows Backup. This isn't the old
    Windows backup hanging around in the menus from Windows 7, this looks
    new.

    Digging a little deeper, it looks like it's only backing up files and preferences to OneDrive. :(

    No, all MS accounts, free or otherwise, have OneDrive storage.

    yeah but you need to subscribe to get enough space to backup, don't you?
