How To Backup Data When Windows Laptop Has Blue Screen

how to backup laptop data blue screen of dead windows 10

mrfdn – Once when you were busy typing on a blog, or watching a video on youtube, or browsing, or playing a game, suddenly the windows laptop displayed a blue screen.

The term BSOD (blue screen of death) must be familiar to the ears of Windows users, but if you are new to it, it must be very frustrating.

Yep, this condition is called the BSOD, where the computer hangs, no cursor appears on the screen, and cannot press any button other than the computer power button.

This condition often occurs, the cause is that there is a system crash due to the use of too many concurrent applications, or because there is a virus on the computer.

Usually when people experience this, they immediately think of reinstalling. Without a second thought, as a result, important data in it was also lost.

Actually, some of these BSODs can be fixed, some can’t, so the only way to fix them is to reinstall windows.

Too bad…

Well, if I’m different, I choose to do a backup first. The important thing is that I have to secure my important data first.

Including yesterday while installing dual boot windows and mac on my Thinkpad X220 laptop, I also did the same thing.

If you also love your data, it would be nice to do the same way I did, very easy.
