When
installing a maintenance update, only ARM program files are updated
(replaced). Windows system files may also be added or updated due to the
addition of new or enhanced features. The ARM directory structure of is
not changed, therefore no changes are made to any data directories.
Even
though installation of a maintenance update does not affect ARM studies,
we recommend to back up data on a regular basis.
By using
the ARM Backup Data command, you can quickly make a backup copy of all
study files changed since the last time you used the Backup Data
command.
Click Utilities on the ARM main menu bar, then Backup Data.
ARM
maintains a list of all saved studies in a file named BACKUP.LOG, stored
in the application data directory. When you select the Backup Data
command, ARM loads the study names from the backup log file to the
Source file list of the Copy File dialog. You cannot remove file names
from the file name list box by pressing the Delete key or
double-clicking with a mouse when backing up data.
The ARM
Utilities menu also includes commands for Copy, Delete and Move data
files. |
