How can I use a cloud backup service with File History and Backup on Windows 8?
-
When I had a Mac I was able to use DollyDrive to backup with my Time Machine settings panel. I like being able to back up my computer to the cloud using the built in settings.

Answer:
Not exactly DollyDrive, there is Microsoft's free cloud service - SkyDrive which you could sync with your documents folder to keep them safe. For actual system backups, there is the somewhat complicated tool under Control Panel > System & Security > File History SkyDrive - http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/skydrive/download

Combining Windows 8 File History with a Cloud Backup service makes for a rock solid backup process. First you'll setup Windows 8 File History and define either a network location or an external hard drive. Then point your Cloud Backup service to that location.
