Google lets you easily back up and sync your entire PC to the Cloud. But first, you will need to install it and here's how!

1. On your computer, click **Download** Backup and Sync.

 

       2. Read the Terms of Service and click **Agree and download**.

 

       3. After it’s downloaded, open **installbackupandsync.exe**.

 

      4. If you see a window asking if you want to allow the program to make changes on your computer, click **Yes**.
