Backup Your Apps and Settings to OneDrive
When you create and sign into a Microsoft account on the terminal, you gain access to services that let you back up
important apps, settings, photos and videos to OneDrive for recovery purposes if something happens to the terminal. For
more information on Microsoft accounts and OneDrive, go to www.windowsphone.com.
