For the past month my PC has been playing up more and more and getting slower and slower to start and open slower to open some programs.
A couple of weeks ago I couldn’t get Windows to start, but could get in to safe mode and with a lot of tinkering I eventually got it sorted. I had the same thing happen today, which got me concerned as to what would happen if I had a major problem and lost all files.
With this in mind I have spent the last few hours operating in safe mode and FTP’ing all important folders to some spare webspace I have got and also transferring them on to my laptop and to a back up PC I just use for storage.
In a way I am glad this PC is playing up, it gave me a reminder about backing up and at least it has given me a warning rather than just dieing on me completely.
