# 文件备份

强烈建议对重要的文件保持多个备份，尤其是 EndNote 数据加和所写的文章。有很多情况可能会导致文献的破坏：硬盘出现坏道，病毒感染，人为误操作等等。有了备份，妈妈再不也不担心我的数据了\~

最简单的备份方法是使用操作系统的复制命令把文件复制一份。但是如果 EndNote 的数据库过于庞大，这可能就不太适用了，但是此时可以使用压缩软件备份一个压缩文件

再不行也可以使用操作系统的备份工具，但是这东西太占地方，而且不能直接查看备份文件有点蛋疼

我建议使用网络硬盘，现在的网络硬盘都是TB级别的了，如在[EndNote Library建立技巧](http://www.howsci.com/endnote-creat-library.html)一文中所说的一样

### 备份建议

至少保留两个备份，并且存储在不同的地方。建议隔天备份一次，因此如果发现有什么错误，可以恢复上一个备份文件

完成重要文件时，将上面列出的文件存档。一个存档应该包含所有的文件，这些文件可以重建格式化文章所需的文献。对备份进行标记，最好是备份在另外一台电脑或者移动硬盘中。如果需要重新创建文件，可以拥有所有必需的文件

This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://kb.howsci.com/backups/backing-up-your-endnote-files.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
