File History is a built-in, automatic file backup utility of Windows 8 and Windows RT. Once enabled, it backs up files that are in your libraries, contacts, favorites, SkyDrive and desktop without any user intervention at scheduled intervals on a storage device. If the original files are lost, damaged or deleted, you can restore all of them quickly.
File History is an important layer of data protection for Windows 8 users. To begin automatically backing up and creating a history of your files, you’ll first need to set up a File History drive and turn File History on. Read this post to know how it is.
