how do i protect windows 7 from getting currupted or fail to boot after power loss or power shut down

Use a UPS or surge protector. Connect the computer to this and it should protect you

Also, backup your data to an external drive. As well as create a factory reset disk just in case the OS corrupts you can recover/reinstall it

It should take some time. You can also create a system image file: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/4241/how-to-create-a-system-image-in-windows-7/

Or, you can buy an external hard drive that uses usb 3.0 (check if your computer has a blue colored usb port first)
The transfer speeds of usb 3.0 is very fast, and shouldn't take long

yes i have blue port /
motherboard z170m plus
i7 6700k
ddr4 16gb

is this ok

Yup, you have usb 3.0. Buy a usb 3.0 external hard drive and you should be set to backup everything

A blackout is 230 volts dropping to zero. A protector ignores everything until 230 volts well exceeds 500 volts (a let-through voltage). A protector does absolutely nothing to protect software. But most ignore numbers; instead recite advertising myths.

Your voltage never exceeded 500 volts - causing many other damaged appliances.

Blackouts do not harm hardware or corrupt saved data. Blackouts are a threat to unsaved data. Backups are recommended because other anomalies (ie manufacturing defects) threaten saved data.

Mentioned the backups earlier, and good point westom. It doesn't protect software itself but your Pc components like the PSU and such from getting fried from power surges. It is important to keep these protected at all time

It does if you ignore numbers. How many joules does that protector claim to absorb? Hundreds? Thousand? Destructive surges (that can overwhelm protection already inside appliances) can be hundreds of thousands of joules. Once we add numbers, then the claim is reversed.

Worse, protectors adjacent to computers can bypass protection inside a PSU; connect a surge destructively into a motherboard. So again, where is this protection?

Urban myths are so widespread that many even believe power restoration causes surges. Most only recite hearsay. Most believe only what was said without demanding supporting facts with numbers.

Electronics routine convert hundreds of joules surges into low voltage DC to power its semiconductors. Those are near zero surges. Effective hardware protection is performed by something complete different - also called a surge protector - that means hundreds of thousands of joules (a destructive surge) dissipates harmlessly elsewhere. That superior solution necessary to even protect plug-in protectors.

None of this is to protect from blackouts. Protection of saved data is also standard inside computer hardware.
