Pre-update backup in Vista

Suppose that you want to create a backup plan that will automatically perform a backup of the
system—for example, by backing up the volume where Windows is installed—every time that
Windows is about to install updates.

Having downloaded one or more updates and scheduled their installation, the Microsoft Windows
Vista operating system records an event with the event source
Microsoft-Windows-WindowsUpdateClient and event number 18 into the System log; the type of
this event is Information.

When creating the plan, type or select the following in the Schedule area:

Log name: System

Event source: Microsoft-Windows-WindowsUpdateClient

Event type: Information

Event ID: 18

Tip: To set up a similar backup plan for machines running Microsoft Windows XP, replace the text in Event
source
with Windows Update Agent and leave the remaining fields the same.
