Thank you for your advice.   I am rather a novice at this so I have one clarifying question if you would be so kind as to help me?

What is the Windows System Tray?  What screen, online or within my computer?  

Thank you much

Find the IDP icon (green padlock) in the Windows System Tray (typically located at the bottom right of the screen). Right-click the IDP icon, then select Open Intuit Data Protect.
Select View Backup History from the Main Intuit Data Protect window.
