Step 6: Click on Command Prompt. No, we are not going to use the command line to
backup data but we are using the Command Prompt to launch an application
with GUI so we can easily move or
backup files from a familiar user interface.
In the Command Prompt, type Notepad.exe and press Enter key to launch our
favorite Notepad application. Once the application is launched, click on
File > Save As (you use Ctrl + S keys as well) to launch Save As
dialog.
Step 7: Save As dialog is what we wanted as from here we can easily browse all
drives and folders without a problem. Simply click on Computer icon in
the left pane and then browse to the drive or folder that you want to
backup and then copy your files to a USB drive. That’s it!
Please note when you are browsing a drive or folder, all files may not appear
as Save As dialog is showing only text files. To view all files, simply
select
All Files in Save as type drop down menu. Also note that the Send to function in the context menu may not work. You may
need to manually copy and paste required files onto the USB drive. Good
luck!
