According to WinRumors, Windows 8 will introduce a feature similar to OS X’s Time Machine called History Vault.
The feature will allow Windows 8 users to backup files and data automatically using the Shadow Copies function of Windows. According to one person familiar with the company’s plans, the backup feature will include the ability to restore to a specific time or date on the system. Users will also be able to select files and restore them to different timestamps.
