The computer is brand new and other than Kaspersky Total Security, I hadn't put anything else on the computer. No .doc files or photos. The strange thing is, is that I also backed it up to a 16.5GB USB Flash Drive and it only took up about 800 MB?
I haven't figured that one out yet. When I put in the first disc to backup to, I was brought to a different window that asked me to make different choices than when I used the USB Flash Drive. And not being too intuitive with computer lingo, I probably made the wrong choice that took up 4 discs. I did a System Repair Disc, too. I can get around a computer fairly well as far as figuring out new software programs, but when it comes to the inner workings, I am totally clueless, but I think it is lack of understanding the language of computer programmers. Now, I have to learn a whole new set of words for the programs that are now 'apps'. Thanks for your input.
