I finally backed up my computer today but I think it went to quickly. How long does it usually take to backup your computer?

Generally, if you use the backup app, it doesn't take very long. It doesn't back up the entire computer...just the new stuff. So, it doesn't have to do all the programs, etc. I remember when I was working, backing up my computer every Friday on floppy disks (the REAL floppies, not the small hard ones) and it took forever  Not so, anymore. It just takes a few minutes. |

My new laptop came with "the cloud" so I shouldn't have any worries about losing stuff...unfortunately, I don't have the faintest idea how to use the cloud, so haven't taken advantage of it yet.  |

How do you use it, Aero? Does your stuff just go there automatically? Or do you have to save to it? There were no instructions with mine...just "here you go."

Not so, anymore. It just takes a few minutes.
