Can I create multiple backups
Hi; I would like to create a backup of one specific game on my system, but when I try to run backup, I only have the choice to run the existing backup, or make changes to it. Can't I create several backup jobs, as I used to do on Windows XP? FW

Not through the wbadmin UI but explore taskscheduler to see if this can be done, the little research I've done so far, it doesn't seem to work out just yet or they haven't figure out the correct command line syntax for it as it'll need to run with admin privileges when it does. Now you cuold do a manual backup of just that game folder (one time backup) which doesn't use the backup scheduler, so either you can schedule that on a regular basis and do manual backups of your system, all depends on which is more important to you.

Personally, I have scheduled a batch file that runs nightly and uses incremental XCOPY commands to back up specific files I care about.-Noel

Hi,First Windows Backup is incremental backup so we can restore previous files by choosing previous restore point:Of course if we choose backup a lot of files, it will be slow than only backup specific files. But it will not take as long as the first time since it is an incremental backup.If you do not like to use this tool, you can try the suggestion to create a backup BAT file and run it in task schedule as Noel said.
