| | shadow copy / restore thingy archives exactly what? Hi, Does shadow volume copy = restore point service? same thing? Whatever it is.. I see it running alot. My understanding is that it is only backing up system files, basically stuff in the Windows folder. Or is it including personal files in the process? thanks |
