The swap file (pagefile.sys) and the file that keeps the RAM content when the machine goes into
hibernation (hiberfil.sys) are not backed up. After recovery, the files will be re-created in the
appropriate place with the zero size.
A volume backup stores all other files and folders of the selected volume independent of their
attributes (including hidden and system files), the boot record, the file allocation table (FAT) if it
exists, the root and the zero track of the hard disk with the master boot record (MBR). The boot
code of GPT volumes is not backed up.
A disk backup stores all volumes of the selected disk (including hidden volumes such as the
vendor's maintenance partitions) and the zero track with the master boot record.

Selecting files and folders
To select files and/or folders for backing up
1.
Expand the local folders tree items in order to view its nested folders and files.
2.
Select an item by checking the corresponding check box in the tree. Selecting a check box for a
folder means that all its content (files and folders) will be backed up. That is also the case for new
files that will appear there in the future.
A file-based backup is not sufficient for recovery of the operating system. In order to recover your operating
system, you have to perform a disk backup.
Use the table in the right part of the window to browse and select the nested items. Selecting the
check box beside the
Name
column’s header automatically selects all items in the table. Clearing
this check box automatically deselects all items.
