❖ Back up your files to storage media on a regular basis.
Label the backup copies clearly and store them in a safe
place.

on it unless you have a separate backup copy.

conserve disk space and help your computer perform at
its optimal level. Consult your Windows

system documentation for more information on these and
other utilities.

computer. (See “Powering down the computer” on
page 102.)
The operating system records information, such as your
desktop setup, during its shut down procedure. If you do not
let the operating system shut down normally, details such as
new icon positions may be lost.
