Luismin +1 for Backup and Restore. It is a legacy feature available on Windows 10 that was originally introduced in Windows 7. It allows you to create backups of your personal files and system images, which can be used to restore your system or individual files in case of data loss. Although it’s an older tool, it’s still effective for creating scheduled backups and restoring data.
