If I have a virus and backup my data will I also backup the virus?
by mpedersen on March 10, 2010Q: I want to erase my drive and restore my factory settings. I have run my virus scanning software and it has not picked anything up. If I do have a virus and I back up my hard drive, am I correct in assuming the virus would back up with everything else?
Your are correct.
