9.4 - Data Recovery

To protect your system and the data on your Windows computer, you use the Backup and Restore console to create a system image backup.

While working with a file, you accidentally delete some data. You need to restore the older version of the file, but you cannot find any previous versions of the file.

What should you do? (Select two. Each answer is part of the complete solution.)

Attach the .vhd file created from the Backup and Restore console.

Use Windows Explorer to browse to and then copy the file.

You are supporting a Windows computer used by three different users. The computer has the following volumes with default System Protection settings:

C: (System drive with user profiles and individual user files)

E: (Data files common to all users)

Which option is the easiest way to protect the data on both volumes with restore points?

Enable system protection for the E: volume.

To provide additional storage space, you have added a second internal hard drive to your Windows system.

For the past several weeks, you have created and changed many files stored on the new hard drive. One of the files on the new drive has become corrupted. You want to recover as much as you can by reverting to a previous version of that file. After viewing the file properties, you notice no previous versions are available.

Which action must you take to ensure that you can revert files to previous versions on the new hard drive of your Windows computer?

Enable System Protection on the new hard drive.

A user has edited and saved a file on the D: drive. The user doesn't like the changes and wants to revert to a previous version of the file. The user goes to the Previous Versions tab of the file and sees nothing listed.

To avoid this situation in the future, you must ensure that users can revert files on the D: drive to earlier versions of the file from the Previous Versions tab.

What should you do? (Select two. Each answer is a complete solution.)

Enable System Protection for the D: drive.

Modify the backup settings in Backup and Restore to include the D: drive.

Your Windows computer has two hard drives. The C: drive is the system drive, and the D: drive holds data files.

You perform a system image backup that includes both drives using the Backup and Restore console. Your computer takes regular restore point snapshots.

One day, you find that the D:\finances folder has been deleted. You check previous versions of the drive but find nothing listed.

Which action can you take to restore the folder and its contents as quickly as possible?

Mount the .vhd file in the backup and copy the folder to the drive.

A user has edited and saved a file on the D: drive. The user doesn't like the changes and wants to revert to a previous version of the file. The user goes to the Previous Versions tab of the file and sees nothing listed.

How can you help the user restore the previous version of the file?

Restore the file from the system image.

To protect the data on your Windows computer from loss or corruption, you enable system protection on all the drives on your computer. You also schedule regular backups of the system drive and all other drives using the Backup and Restore (Windows 7) console.

After working with a file, you notice that you accidentally deleted most of the data.

How can you restore the file to the state it was in before you modified it? (Select two. Each answer is a complete solution.)

Use the file's properties to restore a previous version of the file.

Use the Backup and Restore (Windows 7) console to locate and restore the file.

Save the backup to the F: drive

Last night, the E: drive crashed.

How can you restore the data files found on the E: drive?

Use the Backup and Restore console to restore data from a backup.

After working with a file on the D: drive, the user has accidentally deleted most of the data in the file. The user needs your help to recover the file as it existed before making the changes. You check the System Protection settings and find that System Protection is not enabled for the D: drive.

How can you restore the data in the file with the least amount of effort?

Use the Previous Versions tab of the file properties to restore the file.
