How to Recover from Computer Heartache
A couple of weeks ago, I was having trouble getting online.
I called my computer manufacturers support line. After many attempts to get me online for an online meeting, the only choice was to clean everything off the computer through a factory restore.
For a second, I silently screamed because I had 2 active projects. After wards, I realized I already had 2 tools that would get me back up to speed.
The first thing I did was reinstalled Xmarks. Xmarks syncs your bookmarks, across multiple computers if necessary. So I was able to have my browsing console back almost immediately, which meant that I could almost work liked if noting happened.
The next place I went to as soon as I was online is Mozy and requested a restore. They tell you when your restore is ready for download and you can then go ahead and download your files back to your computer.
This shows that a little bit of risk management planning can go a long way. Its never too late to think about "what if"?
The rest of the weekend was spent recovering all the information, but I know I would have been worse off if I didn't have the tools mentioned in place.
