Well, my system may not be the best in the world, but I have my C
drive partitioned into C and D, and a seperate HD serves as E.

Although WL has never failed me, even in recovering QSOs when a
problem occurs, I have a simple .bat file which copies the entire
content of C:\Ham\Contests to both the D drive and the E drive. The
.BAT is on the desktop, and it's simply a matter of minimizing WL,
clicking on the .bat icon and then going back to business as usual. I
lose about 10 seconds, and can cut that down some by moving all the
old contest files to another directory called "Logs".
