It is widely understood that all users should back up all stored data on a regularly scheduled basis to protect all important data.

Users can implement Veeam Agent for Microsoft Windows to perform regularly scheduled backups automatically, or manually, as needed.

Veeam Agent for Windows users are able to:

- Create a comprehensive system image backup and securely back up chosen computer volumes or specific personal folders with files.

Veeam Data restore offers two options:
-
Volume-level restore: Veeam Agent is able to restore the complete content of the entire volume. The solution retrieves the data blocks pertaining to the designated volumes and copies them to the desired location. A volume can then be restored to a new location or its original location.
-
File-Level Restore: Veeam Agent will use Veeam’s proprietary driver to publish backup content safely to a user's computer file system. Users can then access the content user Veeam’s Virtual Disk Driver (VDK), which is included with the solution. Users can then easily browse and copy the desired files and folders to use as desired.
