Why is a backup copy of a file created?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: To recover the file if it is lost, deleted, or damaged
A backup is a separate copy of data kept so that work can be restored after accidental deletion, hardware failure, corruption, malware, or another loss event. A useful backup should be stored safely and, when possible, separately from the original device. It does not delete the original, reduce performance by definition, or require sharing a password.
