Configuring WD Anywhere Backup One-Click Backup
WD Anywhere Backup allows you to back up all your important data, such as
documents, photos, music and videos, on your computer’s hard drive with the click of
a button. This feature backs up your data to the WD ShareSpace so you can restore
your data in the event that your computer’s hard drive crashes.
The first time you install WD Anywhere Backup, the WD Anywhere Backup
Configuration screen appears.
Note: The screen below only appears when you have WD ShareSpace attached to your computer’s
local area network.
This screen offers two options:
Automatic Backup: The main option is to have the WD ShareSpace automatically
and continuously back up your files, providing assurance that your files can always be
restored.
