Introduction
The HP Backup and Recovery Manager is an easy-to-use, versatile
application that allows you to back up and recover the primary hard drive
on the PC. The application works within Windows to create backups of
Windows, all applications, and all data files. Backups can be scheduled to
occur automatically at designated intervals, or they can be initiated
manually. Important files can be archived separately from regular
backups. Recovery Points and File Backups can be copied to CD or DVD
discs, if the appropriate hardware is installed, while all backups can be
copied to network or secondary hard disks. All of these features make the
HP Backup and Recovery Manager a necessary tool to ensure the security
of your data.

The HP Backup and Recovery Manager is available in two forms:
1.

How to Install

Recovery Manager is easily installed by running the setup.exe application
