Answer:

Implement shadow copies on the relevant data.

Step-by-step explanation:

A shadow copy, like a file or directory, is a preview of a set of information.

Shadow copies provide us with the ability to recover directories based on screenshots of storage drives. After taking a snapshot, previous versions of files and folders from that snapshot can be viewed and potentially restored.

For each screenshot, a shadow copy does not make a full copy of all files. Alternatively, Windows Server 2016 will track changes to the drive after a screenshot is taken.

For monitoring the modified disk blocks, a specific amount of disk space is reserved. Some of the content may be in the current version of the file when you access a previous version of a file, and some may be in the snapshot.
