    Lab 007 / User Account & Backup


    Name: Section:
    Student #: Table:
    When complete, ask instructor to sign__________________ and submit the screenshots.
    1) Routine Backup Setup
    Data Backup is a very critical job for all users; in this section, we will test one of the automatic
    backup software solutions called SyncBackFree. There are multiple different solutions available.

    A. Initial Preparations:
    In real life, we will have actual data that we will backup. However, we will create some fake data
    files in our Lab to use since we have no actual data.
     Create two folders on your Desktop, Name them HomeWork & School.
     In each folder create a few files “at least 8 Word, or Excel files make sure you type something in the file”.
    In this class, we will backup the data to your USB, so go to your USB and create a folder named
    Backup-600##### (## your 600 number), then create two folders inside that HomeWork Backup &
    School Backup

    B. Set the Backup Application:


    1. We will use a backup application called SyncBackFree,
    Google it, and install it on your computer.
    2. SyncBackFree, offers good features for a backup solution; the software works in simple
    principles:
    we didn't add step-by-step instructions on purpose, so you need
    to learn how to explore and understand new systems .
     Create two Backup Profiles, one to backup your HomeWork folder and the other to backup
    your School folder. Make sure you RUN the backup after you set that up, the system usually only does
    Simulation and doesn’t actually Backup.
     Schedule the Backup profile HomeWork folder to be done every day, while the School
    folder is once a week. system will show a warning that your user has no password, no problem you can continue
    without the password.

    Take a screenshot, Lab7-S- 1, Showing the main screen of SyncBackFree and the 2 backup
    profiles.

    C. Recover Data from the backup:


    The reason we did the backup is to be able to recover the files in case of a disaster, now we will
    check if you can restore deleted files using the backup application.
    1. On your PC, go to the Homework & School folders and delete a couple of the files you had in
    them.
    2. Now go to SyncBackFree and try to restore the deleted files.

    2) User Account
    As we explained in the PowerPoint presentation, we can create user
    accounts from two places in Windows 10. either from inside the
    settings or from Computer Management.
    In this part of the Lab, we will try both options.

    A. Create Four Accounts, 2 from System Setting and 2 from computer management:
    1. Create two additional users using the Local User Management under Computer
    Management.
    Click on the Start Menu > type Computer Management > access the
    Local Users and Groups.
    Before you create the users remember
     Remove the selection of "User must change password."
     Select the "Password never expires."
    The Two Users we will create are Buzz & Jessie both should have Password1
    as the password.
    We also need to set Buzz as an Administrator user and for that, we will need
    to add him to the Administrators Group. We did explain that in the Lecture
    part, so either look at the lecture or use Google to find out.

    Take a screenshot, Lab7-S- 2, Showing the user management screen with the two accounts.
    2. Create two new user accounts on your computer using the Start Menu  Settings 
    Accounts, options, we will NOT use a Microsoft Account we will use a local account on the
    computer.
     Forky set him as Administrator Account with Password1 as Password.
     Woody set him as Standard User, with Password1 as Password.
    It will ask you to set the question for password recovery questions, so feel free to answer them.

    Take a screenshot, Lab7-S- 3, Showing the two accounts.


    B. Experimenting with the 4 users:
    1. Before you log in to any of the users, go to the C:\users do you find any user profiles for the
    four users we created above?  Yes  No Explain Why Below
    If you don’t know why that means you need to review the lecture presentation 😊

    2. Now Login to the Forky user account, and on his desktop, create a couple of files.
    3. Now try to go to the user profile folder c:\users and check what folder you will see there.
    List the new folders that just show under the C:\users

    4. Open the Folder c:\users\forkey, here are all the user details.
    Take a screenshot, Lab7-S- 4, Showing the contents of c:\users\forkey Folder.

    5. Now logout from the Forkey account and login for the other three accounts, Buzz, Woody,
    and Jessie.
    6. Go back to the Forky account, and check if you can access the Buzz, Woody, and Jessie
    profiles and files. Their profiles will be under c:\users
    Are you able to access their profiles  Yes  No Explain Why Below

    Take a screenshot, Lab7-S- 5, Showing the contents of c:\users Folder.


    7. Now login to Woody’s account and check if you can access Jessie’s profiles.

    Are you able to access her profiles  Yes  No Explain Why Below

    Stop and Wait for the Instructor's presentation.


    3) Format and reinstall OS. Don't Do these steps alone; walk with the instructor
    Our customer Mr. Forky had a problem with his home computer; it looks like the computer is
    infected with Viruses, I tried to clean the viruses, but it seems the viruses caused a lot of damage to
    the OS. Therefore, I recommend we format his computer, Mr. Forky is ok with that, but he asked
    for a backup of his data from the computer before we format it.

    1. Please list the steps you think we should do:

    Discuss with the instructor before you move to the next step

    4) User’s Data Restore:


    In this part of the lab, we will assume that we did the back of
    the user data to the instructor server, and now it is time to put
    the data back in the user’s profile folder.
     Login to Mr. your main account.
     Access one of the instructor’s servers \\192.168.26.102
    or \\192.168.26.101 or \\192.168.26.100 or \\
    192.168.26.99  Applications then copy Forky Backup
    folder to the desktop.
     The Forky Backup folder contains 4 folders, one for
    each user, so you need to copy the contents of each
    folder, not the whole folder just the content to the C:\
    users\each_user
     Now if you check the Forky account and see how his files are back to Document,
    Download, and Desktop.
    Take a screenshot, Lab7-S- 6, Showing your full desktop and that it contains Forky’s files.

    5) Cloud Backup
    Many companies are building cloud storage and providing this service to their
    customers; many companies offer this service, GDrive from Google, One
    Drive from Microsoft, Dropbox
    We will work on Google Drive.
    1. Download the Google Drive application from https://www.google.com/drive/download/.
    2. Start the Application and sign in with your Google Account.
    3. Configure the application to backup only the HomeWork folder from your desktop to the
    Cloud.
    4. Visit the Google Drive website and check if the backup shows.
    Take a screenshot, Lab7-S- 6, Showing the backup folder on your Google Drive site.
    5. On your Google Drive site, create a folder, name it with your 600#### number.
    6. Share this folder with anyone who has the link.
