Data loss may happen to everyone who uses the computer, and I believe everyone will feel painful if data loss happens to him. However, such thing not to happen can rarely be guaranteed as there are too many causes. And for different causes of data loss, there are some good tips to prevent them.

1. Disk and system crashed. I should say this is accident that everyone may encounter and nobody has a good solution to prevent the disk or system crash. So what we can do to prevent data loss in maximum is to do the backup, you can backup it to a local disk.  And for some important files, you can backup them to an online service. Why you need to do both? Because recover from a local disk is much faster than downloading online. But if a catastrophe happened, you at least have the way to get your data.

2. Virus caused. Internet is very dangerous and your computer can affect by the virus at any time. Some virus may cause your data loss or damaged. Sometimes these lost data or damaged data is very difficult to recover. So to avoid this, you need to install the anti virus in your computer, it can help protect your computer. This will reduce the risk of your data loss.

3.  User error. We need to admin that the data loss is often caused by our own wrong operation. Eg, when we are editing a document and accidentally delete portions -- after the document is saved, the portions that are changed or deleted are lost unless you've enabled features that will store changes for you. If you don't want to mess with the advanced features, use the F12 key before you start working to save the file under a different name.

4.  Identity theft. This cause should be the worst factor as it may bring the worst effect to you. Your business computer may contain many confidential files of your company and it cannot be leaked otherwise it may bring effect to your company and your career. In this case, you need to pay more attention on your computer and keep it in your sight all the time when you are out. But accident is very difficult to predict, you need to do some preparation before it. Here we recommend a PC anti theft software, it is called miTracker. It has double safegurads to protect your computer, the first safegurad is the encryption function, it used military standard encryption algorithm, once your files are encrypted by this tool, nobody can open the encrypted file even they got the computer. The second safeguard is remote deletion and lockdown, when you find your laptop gets lost or stolen,  you can use miTracker to delete any important files remotely, also you can remote lock down the stolen laptop and nobody can get access into it. This is a very good tip for your choice regarding how to prevent the data loss.
