Previous versions of Windows have all had a Backup Program included as part of the Operating System. Does Windows XP Home Edition have a Backup Program? If yes, how do you access it because I can't find a Shortcut to it on my PC.

Dan Heen, July 2005

Yes.
Go to accesories, system tools and file and settings wizard, this will transfer all you files (not os) to the hard drive of your choice.

Get Acronis True Image Home Version 10. its only £15.10 plus delivery from Ebuyer. It is like ghost but quicker. It s not only a backup program but also an "image" program. In other words it take a snapshot of your whole computer, so if anything went wrong like you got a virus you could just restore back to when you last did a backup. You can do incremental backups as well. It allows you restore just files as well if you want. I have used it professionally for years it works very well.

Windows xp has system restore.
Programmes, Accessories, system tools followed by system restore and select a time when every thing was o.k.

Windows XP Home has nothing. Even if you find NTBackup the small print says it cannot be used to restore ...
Try Ghost and AISBackup. AISBAckup is very good for incremental backups, and you get 30 actual test days to try it. I understand the latest version of Ghost offers incremental backups...
