I've used this for a few months and it ended up taking too much space and was quite fragile in my experience.
Even with this and OneDrive enabled, I managed to lose years of family photos when trying to free up space thinking "oh I've got this backed up" and then thinking the same when freeing up space when deleting my backup. I wish Windows could be less confusing...
- layer8 1y agoWindows File History doesn’t eliminate the need for an actual backup of important files, but it’s a convenient feature to be able to quickly inspect or restore random files you changed or deleted recently-ish (roughly a year for me). It’s best to point it to a separate drive/partition and configure it to fill that one up and have it delete the oldest files whenever it needs more free space.
