Test a Backup

Description

I have a WDBBEP0010BBK Passport USB drive which currently holds 191 MB, 58 files, 51 folders.
I backed up everything - not just certain catagories.

How can I test that backed-up data to verify that - in the evernt of a future computer failure of some sort - the Back Up will really restore my system?

Thank you for the advice.

Hello,

You can retrieve the backup files to a specific folder in the computer or in another computer if possible and make sure all the files have been retrieved.
