How to make a backup of my Facebook

Social networks have already become an everyday tool in the life of a large part of society. The truth is that sometimes, for example, we are not aware of the amount of information we share through Facebook and the rest of the networks. Therefore, it is worth downloading all that information we have stored or shared, so that we explain in detail how to make a backup of the Facebook account.

The first step in making a backup of your Facebook account will be to log in to this social network. Once on the main page, you must go to the arrow located on the top right and click on the "Settings" option.

Within the general configuration of the account, you can find the option "Download a copy of your information" through which you can generate a backup copy of all the information on your Facebook account: personal information, photos, messages, publications, etc.

Next, you will already see the information download screen where you will be informed about what categories of your Facebook data are available to you and you can download using the backup copy that you are going to request. Click on the green button that you will see in the central part to start downloading this file.

Facebook will then warn you that, in case you have a lot of information on your Facebook to make the backup, it may take a while to create the file and ask you for confirmation to collect all the data in your account.

Likewise, a pop-up message will appear saying that you will be notified by e-mail as soon as your backup copy is ready . So it will be necessary that you have your email open to know that you have prepared your Facebook backup.

First, you will receive an e-mail informing you that you have requested a backup of your Facebook account, as well as you will be able to see what type of information your download will contain. Similarly, in the event that another person requests a copy of your Facebook account without your permission, you could notify through this email that it was not you who did it.

Later - the time may vary depending on the amount of data to be collected - you will receive another email with a link or download link for the backup copy of your Facebook account. You must click on it and you will be redirected back to Facebook.

In this way, you will see a Facebook screen similar to the previous one with a new green button in the center that will give you access to download the backup copy of your Facebook. Press it.

To finish, for security reasons you must enter the password of your Facebook account, the same password you use to log in. Click on "Send" and it will begin to download the information of everything that you have shared on your Facebook.
