Can I restore a backup to a new windows computer after the old one crashed & died?
Hey there @Gary W.12 - thanks for posting on our Community and happy Friday!
You should be able to restore your backups to your new computer by navigating your backups page online and downloading them from there.
Let me know if you have any other questions!
