2.) How does File History work?
With Windows File History, you can easily back up your libraries, favorites, contacts and other folders to an external drive. A complete backup is created the first time. With each new version of a file, i.e. when changes are made to the files, a backup is automatically created.
This means you can back up your files at any time and also restore older file versions. File Version History was designed by Microsoft to create backup copies of a file over and over again. This way you can access and use an older version again in an emergency!
