Tech Tip of the Week: Don’t Lose Your Local Data!

No one wants to lose an assignment when a computer crashes. The likelihood of it happening to you might be really low, but the impact could be huge!

Always keep a backup of your critical files, whether that’s on another physical hard/flash/thumb drive, or in the Cloud. Sure, Microsoft Word auto-saves every few seconds, but if it’s only saving to your local drive, you’re at risk.

OWU BishopApps offers unlimited online storage. You can download the Google Drive client to automatically sync with a local folder, and always save your work there. Then it’s always available from another computer.
