Ron, drag-n-drop is good because it requires no special software to recover files. When the files on the C drive are unaccessible, the recovery software might be, too.

I use Karen's Replicator to back up folders, but do it manually and don't use compression.
I also make a system image weekly. As you know, one can recover individual files from an image.

Which reminds me to practice that NOW :)

Ron, to practice file recovery from an image file I tried it just now. Software for imaging is EASEUS. Turns out I can recover only the lowest level folder - cannot open that folder to recover only one file in it. Even though normally any lost file would be on my flash drive and could be dragged, it's nice to know it can also be recovered from the image
