4.4 Managing and Backing Up Files
You can back up files to your PC using Windows Mobile Device Center or ActiveSync, or copy files to a storage
card that is installed on your phone. You can also efficiently manage your files and folders using your phone’s
File Explorer.
To copy files using Windows Mobile Device Center/ActiveSync to the PC
1. Connect your phone to your PC.
2. In Windows Mobile Device Center, click File Management > Browse the contents of your device.
Or
In ActiveSync on your PC, click Explore. This opens the Mobile Device folder for your phone.
3. Browse your phone for files that you want to copy to your PC.
4. Select and copy the files [Ctrl + C] and then paste them [Ctrl+V] to the destination folder in the PC.
Copying a file results in separate versions of a file on your phone and PC. Changes made to one file will not
affect the other since the files are not synchronized.
