To make a backup copy of your project:
Procedure
- Open the Windows Explorer.
- Locate the project directory for the project you want to back up.

Copy the project's directory to a CD or DVD.
Important: If the project is running, some files in this directory may be locked and will not be deleted.
If you try to back up a running project, an error message opens telling you there is a sharing violation.
