Perhaps you have handpicked the finest computer with the selected fastest processor and graphic
card and with a few gigabytes of memory. So you thought to yourself that your machine is probably
going to sustain you for the next five (5) years. But little did you discover that some six months down
the road, your computer is behaving like a Pentium 2 computer, perpetually flustering you with its
choppy images, frustrating pop-ups and tremendously slow disk access. Gradually, your computer
crashes and all your data is lost on one fine afternoon.
One thing you have probably missed out is the need for system maintenance. The basic routine
maintenance comprises of the 3 basic
processes:
1. Data Backup
2. Malware Maintenance
3. Disk or File System Maintenance
Let us address each of the processes in detail so that you can better understand how you can apply
them in your system to extend its longevity.

DATA BACKUP

Backing up basically means creating a redundant copy of a data so that in case anything happens to
the original data, you have a spare copy. This is typically a simple thing to do. If you feel that you
should backup your valuable data, then you should decide and select what are the data to be backup.
Depending on your needs, you may choose to backup your windows registry, or your Outlook
Express mail data, or even your windows security keys.
But when these files gradually occupies a lot of disk space, you may need to seek help from archiver
utilities such as Winzip which enables you to compact your files into a single compressed file.
You can then break up this large file into several pieces to be stored in several mediums such as a
span of CD or DVD-Recordable. Winzip also allows you to protect your file with encryption and a
software password to prevent any unauthorized access. There are a number of backup methods you
could use.

The process of finding the System Image Backup tool is different in Windows 7 than in Windows 8
and 10, so we’ll show you to find the tool in all versions, and then explain how to create and use the
system image.
O p e n S ys te m Im a g e B a c ku p in W in d o w s 1 0

In Windows 10, hit Start, type “backup,” and then select the entry.

In the “Backup and Restore (Windows 7)” window, click the

“Create a system image” link.
O p e n S ys te m Im a g e B a c ku p in W in d o w s 8

In Windows 8, hit Start, type “file history,” and then select the “File
History” entry.

3|Pa g e
 In the “File History” window, click the “System Image Backup” link.

O p e n S ys te m Im a g e B a c ku p in W in d o w s 7

Hit Start, click the arrow to the right of the “Getting Started” item, and
then click “Back up your files.”

In the “Backup and Restore” window, click the “Create a system image” link.

S te p T w o : C re a te a S ys te m Im ag e B a c k u p

Once you’ve opened the system image tool, the steps for creating a system image are the same in
Windows 7, 8, or 10.

1. When you first open the tool, it will scan your system for
external drives. You can then decide where you want to save the image. It can be to an external
drive, multiple DVD’s, or on a network location. Select where you want to save your backup and then
click “Next.”

4|Pa g e
 2. By default, the tool only backs up your system drive. You can
include other drives if you want, but remember that this will add to the size of the final image.
Typically, we like to create separate image backups for each drive.

3. At the confirmation screen, notice the amount of space the

image may take. If anything doesn’t look right, you can still go back and make adjustments. If
everything looks okay, click the “Start Backup” button.

4. You’ll see a progress meter as the tool creates the image.

It can take a while. In this example, we’re backing up a drive with about 319 GB of data. It took about
2.5 hours when backed up to an external hard disk connected to our PC via USB. Your time will vary
depending on your PC and the type of storage to which you’re backing up.

S te p T h re e: C re a te a S ys te m R e p a ir D is c

5. When the backup is complete, Windows gives you the option

to create a system repair disc. You can use this disc to start your PC and restore from your image
backup in the event you ever need to replace your hard drive and can’t start Windows. We highly
recommend you go ahead and create the disc, then label and store it in a secure location.

6. Select the drive you want to use to create the disc and then click
the “Create Disc” button.

5|Pa g e
 7. When it comes time to restore the image, you can start your PC
from the recovery disc to get access to a number of recovery tools—including “System Image
Recovery.”
M A L W A R E M A IN T E N A N C E

Malware refers to any kind of malicious codes, objects or content

that infiltrates your computer, resulting in damage and causing your system to act in an undesirable
manner. Commonly, these include viruses, spyware, worms, trojan horses, spams and many more.
When you are infected, you can lose your privacy, confidential data and access to your system when
software and hardware are damaged. Fortunately, there are a couple of preventive measures you can
take to protect yourself from malware.
A n tiviru s p ro g ra m

Alternatively referred to as an antivirus software, AVS, antivir, or just AV.

An antivirus program is a software utility designed to protect your computer or network against
computer viruses. If and when a virus is detected, the computer displays a warning asking what
action should be done, often giving the options to remove, ignore, or move the file to the vault.

A Registry scanner or Registry cleaner is third-party software for Microsoft Windows that searches for
Registry entries that are redundant or no longer used, and removes or resolves them. The theory is
that this process makes the system run more efficiently since the Registry has been "cleaned" of
these useless entries.
1. Double click CCleaner on your desktop to
open

2. Click Analyze button to check the system

3. Click Run Cleaner to clean the system

7|Pa g e
 4. On the left-side, choose Registry menu and
click Scan for Issues

5. Click Fix Selected Issues button below

6. A dialog box will appear, click Yes if you want

to back-up the registry and No if
you don’t want to back it up

7. Choose Fix All Selected Issues to fix the

registry

8. Finally, click Close to exit the program.

V iru s - is a program or piece of code that is loaded onto your computer without your knowledge and
runs against your wishes.
R e g is try- is a database used by Windows operating system to store configuration information
M a lw are- refers to any kind of malicious codes, objects or content that infiltrates your computer,

D is k C le a n u p - is a computer maintenance utility that is included in the Microsoft Windows operating
system and is designed to free up space on the hard drive. Disk Cleanup helps free up space on your
hard drive. Disk Cleanup searches your drive, and then shows you temporary files, Internet cache
files, and unnecessary program files that you can safely delete. The cleanup process involves
searching and analyzing the hard drive for files that are no longer needed. Then it proceeds to
remove them and thus freeing up disk space on the hard drive.
M A K IN G A D IS K IM A G E B A C K U P
Making a duplicate image or cloning a drive is often used in data recovery to ensure that the
original media where data has been lost is untouched while recovery is done on the cloned drive.
BACKUP
Creating a backup of files is one of the most important things people do not do, even though it
should be their top priority. Never recover lost data on the original media. Make a copy or image of it
on another storage media, and recover from that copy.
C h e c k M o d e o f F a ilu re
Before you engage in any self-recovery jobs, do the following first:
a) Check if you have heard any sound prior to your data loss.

9|Pa g e
 b) Notice if the performance of the system degrade.
c) Encountered any problems while opening files, folders or saving.
This is simply to make sure that the loss is logical in nature, and not physical. If you encounter any
data loss arising from physical data loss, please send it to a professional data recovery outfit.
