   I'm in a rush since I have to get the job done, but the question remains...   
      
   Q: How do you (best) back up your apks (including split apks) to Windows?   
   A: ?   
      
   Since my phone is broken (so the 5AH battery won't last forever), I'm   
   moving forward by using Muntashirakon App Manager on Windows right now.   
        
      
   Since Windows manages Android phones better than Android does, here's a   
   screenshot of the process I'm using to back up the ~600 APKs to Windows.   
       
      
   That one screenshot explains how to back up every user app that you ever   
   personally installed (that has a launcher) from Android to the Windows PC.   
      
   Once the APKs are on Windows (some of which are split APKs), to restore to   
   Android is as simple as copy/paste using just your Windows monitor & mouse.   
      
   It's easy. But I'm hoping others have found an even easier way to back up &   
   restore on your LAN all your user-installed APKs between Windows & Android.   
      
    I.   No Cloud Storage   
    II.  No Google Account on the phone   
    III. No Internet whatsoever   
    IV.  No payware   
      
   Just your PC and Android on your own LAN.
