[ The PC Guide | System Care Guide | Backups and Disaster Recovery ] Disaster Recovery Disaster recovery refers to the process of restoring a system after a "disaster". There are many different definitions of what a "disaster" is, but for our purposes this simply refers to any situation where you need to recreate a system after a hard disk failure.
Depending on how you did your backups and what software you used, recovery can be very simple or a great deal of work. This section takes a look at recovery procedures in some detail. (You may also change your mind about what type of backup methodology you want to use, based on what you read here.)

Note: I am referring to
recovery here from the loss of an entire system; if you need to restore just a file or
group of files, simply run your backup software's restore facility, select the file(s) to
be restored, and follow the directions.
