If you require the backup because of a hard disk crash then you will have lost everything on the c drive. In addition to your normal backups make sure you have a copy of the backups on one of the following:- a) CD b) USB stick c) USB Disk Drive d) network drive or Internet Alan

But she should put them in their own directory and not the root. Usually the Legacy backups would go into the Legacy\Backup folder. I have almost all my genealogy files in C:\Roots\ and prefer it that way. If windows gets corrupted and I have to reinstall then my files are still in that directory and its subfolders as opposed to My Documents which is usually not recovered after a windows reinstall.

Can you click on the buttons and redirect your backups to somewhere else? -- Regards, Mike Fry Johannesburg Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp Follow Legacy on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/LegacyFamilyTree) and on our blog (http://news.LegacyFamilyTree.com).
