Type your answer here... Differential
Answer 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 is a daily backup?
The Daily backup type is sort of an Differential off-shoot. In this backup type, only files that were changed (have the archive bit on), during the current day are backed up, and the Archive bit is left unchanged. This backup type is generally not used as part of a recovery program, because in order to do a full system restore, you would have to have a Normal backup, and then a Daily backup from each and every day since the Normal backup. thaslimca007@gmail.com
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.

How does Windows Backup verify the data written tot he backup medium?
By performing a bit-by-bit comparison of the backup medium with the originalsource data.
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.
