Steps to Enable Auto Backup on Windows 10

Usually to back up the operating system, computer users often use the solution to create a Ghost version to 'package' the current Windows status and use it for recovery when there is a problem.

However, the Ghost solution is quite time-consuming and if you carelessly you can damage a hard drive partition if you choose the wrong partition to extract the ghost file.

For more convenience, Microsoft has built-in Windows backup and restore (Backup and Restore) feature to quickly back up data, as well as system status at a certain point in time, after that restores when needed.
