“OneDrive” is the option that Microsoft wants you to use to create a file backup on Windows 11. Windows Backup is better suited for long-term archival or creating full backups. Since the backups are stored on-site, your files will be protected against accidental deletion, hardware failure, and system corruption, but not from natural disasters. Also, you can only schedule backups once a day. The feature works similarly to File History, with the difference that Windows Backup also lets you create a backup of the system files. “Windows Backup” is another option that allows you to back up your files to a removable drive or network folder. Also, the external drive must always be connected to your computer. The only problem with this solution is that since these are local backups, data won’t be protected from natural disasters.
This option is better suited for those users with a large amount of data, such as video, music, software collections, and project files. “File History” is a feature designed to create incremental backups of files to an external or network-shared drive during the day to prevent data loss.
On Windows 11, you can create file backups automatically of your documents and files using OneDrive, File History, and Windows Backup to protect the data against accidental deletion, hardware failure, or corruption, and in this guide, you will learn how.
