Boot and System Files

Backup considers the functionality of WFP when backing up and restoring boot and system files. System files are backed up and restored as a single entity. The Window File Protection service catalog file, located in the folder %SystemRoot%\system32\ catroot\{F750E6C3-38EE-11D1-85E5-00C04FC295EE}, is backed up with the system files.

In Windows NT 4.0 and earlier, backup programs could selectively backup and restore operating system files as they would data files, allowing for incremental backup and restore operations of most operating system files. Windows 2000, however, does not allow incremental restoration of operating system files.

The Advanced Backup option Automatically back up system protected files with the System State backs up all system files that are in your %SystemRoot% directory, in addition to the startup files that are included with the system state data.
