[QUOTE="piquiteco, post: 1044698, member: 96829"] I was going to answer and I was typing and [USER=69540]@Digmor Crusher[/USER] answered. Yes, backup, backup and backup is the safest way to prevent against ransomware or some disaster like disk failure. About backup protection, the only backup software I know of that has protection against ransomware is Macrium Reflect called [URL='https://www.macrium.com/ransomware-protection']Macrium Image Guardian[/URL] paid version only and Acronis called [URL='https://www.acronis.com/en-us/technology/active-protection/']Acronis Active Protection[/URL], but macrium needs to be tested one day in practice to see how it does in tests.

All versions protected against ransomware and blocked and restored encrypted files successfully never failed except in version 2021, which curiously one of the last versions Acronis integrated AV, but when I tested it failed and all files were encrypted in the last version 2021 and the 2020 version did not fail, until today I do not understand why.
