What backup types backs up all selected files and folders and changes their archive attribute a normal b incremental c differential d daily?

Which backup clears the archive bit status?

Incremental Backup. There 3 data backup types, full backup, incremental backup and differential backup and the only backup type that clears the archive bit is incremental.

Why would you perform a differential backup instead of an incremental backup?

An Incremental backup backs up only the selected files that have their archive bit set to ON, setting them back to OFF. This results in a backup of all files that are new or changed since the last backup, whether it was a full or an incremental. The advantage of an Incremental is that it takes the least amount of time and media of all the backup methods.A Differential backup backs up only the selected files that have their archive bit set to ON but does not set the archive bit back to OFF. A Differential backup will back up all selected files that are new and changed since the last full backup. The advantage of a Differential comes at restore time; you'll need only the last full backup and the last differential to get a complete restore. In the case of restoring with Incremental backups, all the Incremental backups since the last full backup plus the last full backup would be necessary.

Which backup types backup selected files and clear the archive bit in Windows Backup?

1. Normal 2. Incremental

Which type of backup does not clear the archive bit?

Type your answer here... DifferentialAnswer Explanation: Differential backups do not clear the archive bit. This results in the backing up of only those files that have been modified since the last full or incremental backup. Each successive differential backup is larger than the last one. When you need to restore, you will need a copy of the full backup plus the most recent differential backup.

What are the different types of computer backups?

Copy backupA copy backup copies all the files you select, but does not mark each file as having been backed up (in other words, the archive attribute is not cleared). Copying is useful if you want to back up files between normal and incremental backups because copying does not affect these other backup operations.Daily backupA daily backup copies all the files that you select that have been modified on the day the daily backup is performed. The backed-up files are not marked as having been backed up (in other words, the archive attribute is not cleared).Differential backupA differential backup copies files that have been created or changed since the last normal or incremental backup. It does not mark files as having been backed up (in other words, the archive attribute is not cleared). If you are performing a combination of normal and differential backups, restoring files and folders requires that you have the last normal as well as the last differential backup.Incremental backupAn incremental backup backs up only those files that have been created or changed since the last normal or incremental backup. It marks files as having been backed up (in other words, the archive attribute is cleared). If you use a combination of normal and incremental backups, you will need to have the last normal backup set as well as all incremental backup sets to restore your data.Normal backupA normal backup copies all the files you select and marks each file as having been backed up (in other words, the archive attribute is cleared). With normal backups, you only need the most recent copy of the backup file or tape to restore all of the files. You usually perform a normal backup the first time you create a backup set.

What kind of archive is a file attribute that can be checked or unchecked to indicate whether the file must be archived?

To use the archive attribute (A), back up files telling the archiving application (WinZip, etc.) to clear the archive attribute of the files it stores copies of. Whenever one of those files is modified in the future, or whenever a new file is created, its archive attribute is set. Therefore, on subsequent backups, you can have the application back up only files that have the archive attribute set (and clear the archive attribute while doing so). That way you don't waste time and drive space backing up files that haven't changed since the last time they were backed up.

Which dos attribute is used by backup programs?

Which backup clear the archive attribute after the backup operation?

Which file attribute identifies the file as having been modified since the last backup?
