Microsoft is taking a stab at its own version of Time Machine with a backup feature for Windows11 that's currently being tested by developers.
The latest Windows 11 Insider Preview includes a new Backup App that functions in a similar fashion to Time Machine in macOS.
Recommended Videos Notably, Time Machine works by allowing you to frequently back up data in macOS. If an issue arises with your Mac system, you can select a date of one of your most recent backups, before the issue occurred, and restore the system to that date to see if the issue will resolve. Time Machine has been a staple on macOS since 2007.
The system features that will generally be backed up include stock applications, documents, photos, files, passwords, and basic settings, in addition to Start Menu and Taskbar configurations. In terms of modification, the system does allow you to determine which files and settings you wish not to include in your backup. Applications downloaded from the Microsoft Store aren’t eligible for automatic backup and reinstallation.
