Hi to all, I know there are a lot of auto backup programs on the market. However, if your main PC is failing, the issue is to recover backup up files onto a backup PC, possibly working under a different version of Windows. Who knows a backup program which would ensure recovery of data to another PC without any problem ? Thanks for your tips, Claude
