Backing up data is important for anybody doing continuously changing work. This speaks largely to programmers, designers, and writers. The wonder of modern technology is the opportunity to work anywhere in the world. However, nothing is worse than the feeling of working diligently for hours only to have the computer restart and all your work be deleted. Hours upon hours of tedious work can be erased forever in the matter of a few seconds. And the most awful part is, neither you nor anyone else can do anything about it. Thankfully, options are available to ease any fears of losing data. The most common way of backing up data is through the standard Windows Backup. Users can specify intervals of when they would like the computer backed up (every month, two months, etc) and also designate where the information should be backed up. This is done by going through the ‘Start' command on the computer and typing ‘Windows Backup'. At this point, select the ‘Set Up Backup' button to begin the Wizard to back up your computer. However, the largest difficulty with this is that Windows Backup will back up your entire computer. While this is undoubtedly useful as computer problems do occur, it is generally unnecessary if you are searching for constant backups while working for a few hours. Backing up the whole computer for the sake of one or a few files is a misuse of both storage space and computer processing power. A second substitute technique for backing up data is to manually save your work to either a USB drive, CD/ DVD, or the Cloud. Saving to a CD/ DVD is beneficial but cumbersome. It can take a few minutes simply to set up the CD to be burned, let alone actually copying the files. Saving files to a USB stick or to the Cloud will be a lot faster then a CD, but the issue with all of the former solutions is that they require the user to manually start the back up. If the user just does not remember to back up their data at one point then all of their new work may be deleted. Through software available at www.hothotsoftware.com, it is possible to select one folder to be automatically backed up, rather than the full content of a hard drive or by manual techniques. By searching ‘How to Auto Backup Excel Spreadsheets', a traditional, user friendly program can be found that permits for ease in backing up data. The first step is to select the folder or folders where the work is saved that you want to back up. Secondly, a desired back up folder needs to be selected. This back up folder may generally be located in the Cloud, on a USB stick, or external hard drive. These locations are separate from the computer that is being backed up, eliminating data loss if the computer fails. Finally, the period for back up can be designated in any interval from 1 second to over 2 hours. This will guarantee a constant copy of your work when alterations are being carried out very quickly and in short intervals.

Loss of work is completely avoidable, simply set a back-up period and alleviate your fears of rework forever.
