Select Existing Backup Set using Windows 98 Backup

NOTE: If you have not already created a backup set, click here for How To ... details.

The following explains how to select an existing back up Set in Windows 98:-

STEP 1:

Select Backup from "Start/Programs/Accessories/System Tools" This will open a Wizard screen and at this point we need to "Open an existing backup job" so as to select the backup set that we want to backup. Click OK.

STEP 2:

In the Open Backup Job dialogue screen, select the Backup set that you had previously saved, this will then be displayed in the "Job to open" field and click the OPEN button.

In this example we have selected to open "PC Win Test Backup".

STEP 3:

When the backup set is opened this automatically selects all the files and folders that we had previously selected when we created the set.

STEP 4:

If you are backing up to the same place (ie floppy disk) as when you created the backup set, all you need to do now is click the START button.

OR

If you wish to backup to a different place, or give the backup a different name, click on the icon button to the right of "Where to back up". Select where you would like to backup to, then click START to commence the backup.

That is it. There is no excuse now not to backup your important data, email, address book and documents.
