Protecting user files with File History
File History is a backup application that continuously protects your personal files stored in Libraries, Desktop,
Favorites, and Contacts folders. It periodically (by default every hour) scans the file system for changes and
copies changed files to another location. Every time any of your personal files has changed, its copy will be
stored on a dedicated, external storage device selected by you. Over time, File History builds a complete
history of changes made to any personal file.
It’s a feature introduced in Windows 8 that offers a new way to protect files for consumers. It supersedes the
existing Windows Backup and Restore features of Windows 7.
File History only saves copies of files that are in your libraries, contacts, favorites, and on your desktop. If you
have folders elsewhere that you want backed up, you can add them to one of your existing libraries or create a
new library.
