My bookkeeper pointed out the other day that the backup on her computer hasn’t been working for the past couple of months. Eek gads! What that means is that all the information she is entering for my bookkeeping purposes could disappear. By “her” computer, she means my computer, which I’ve set up for her to use.
Documents, photos, music, videos … there’s all sort of valuable stuff on that computer because it used to be my home computer.
So here is my data loss disaster story in a series of photos.
It starts like this:
Oh, that was weird!
Oh, that was really bad.
Oh, I don’t know how to fix this.
Oh, I really don’t know how to fix this.

Oh, James?
Oh, geez.
Oh. Ooooooooh.
Oh. No.
