Programs that are not currently running are typically stored on secondary storage devices such as hard drives or solid-state drives, rather than in the CPU's memory or on the computer monitor. Backups are important for ensuring data safety and should be stored in a different physical location, but they are not necessarily where programs are stored when they are not in use.
