Did you see my Facebook post I completely wiped out my computer on Saturday morning? I was stressing out.

I was having a problem on my site on Saturday so I was cleaning cache and temp files to see if that would resolve the problem on my end and unfortunately it did not help. I turned the computer off and back on and so on. I saw something and clicked that little button. Everything I had on my computer was completely gone. I have already lost all my pictures once and did not want to travel down that road again.
My computer guy suggested I get Carbonite. I bought Carbonite and had never had to use it before but I felt safe knowing I had back up in case my computer was to get a virus or something I would be able to restore everything once my computer was repaired. I sure never expected I would have been the cause of my frustrations this weekend.
I must say if you do not have some sort of backup system that I highly recommend Carbonite. I think I renew in March and will continue renewing my service with them. It took a while to get everything in place but when I woke up on Sunday morning everything was all back to normal again. I restarted my computer and all the files was in the correct places and everything.
I was so happy and relieved.
Do you use a online backup service?
No I don’t I burn them to dvd if I could afford that is sounds great.
My computer guy has always saved my pictures but the last time my computer crashed. He did not realize he had them in another file and completely wiped the computer clean. I agree it may be a little pricey I renew during tax season which helps me on the price.
