Backup solution for Windows 11
So, I made the switch from Mac OS to PC Windows 11 and man, was I surprised to find out that Windows 11 doesn't have a built-in automatic backup system. I mean, in the Mac world, Time Machine just does its thing in the background, keeping my stuff safe. But in Windows 11, there's no such luck. They suggested using OneDrive, but I don't really want all my private files up in the Cloud, you know? Plus, it's more like a sync than a real backup.
I poked around in the Control Panel and found this buried feature called System 7 backup, but it only worked for my internal drives C and D, leaving my external drive high and dry. That's when I stumbled on AOMEI backup software. And let me tell you, it's been a game-changer. I set up daily automated backups for my Win11C drive and my external F drive, all saved to a 1TB external drive without a hitch. And when I tried restoring a single file, it worked perfectly. It's straightforward, smooth, and best of all, it doesn't cost a dime!
