Recovery
Restoring from a backup
In Turkish: Yedekten geri yükleme
Bringing back your files, photos or phone data from a saved copy after a loss, a failure or an attack.
A backup only helps if it can be restored. Many people find out too late that a backup was incomplete, old, or protected by a password they no longer have. A short test now saves a lot of trouble later.
After a ransomware infection or a device compromise, restore onto a clean device and change your passwords first, so the problem does not come back with the files.
What to do
- Once in a while, restore one file or photo from your backup to check that it really works.
- Keep at least one copy that is not connected to the device all the time.
- Store the backup's password or key separately and safely.
