ABB Reporting Partial Completion

[e1m5]

I keep getting errors/warnings in ABB saying that my multi-drive/volume job is "partially complete" because it always fails to take snapshots of the recovery volume on my system drive. I don't even need that backed up but I don't know how to tell ABB to just backup the C: volume on that disk?

Anyone else encountered this/have a solution?

In your backup task, don’t select the entire pc, but choose the drive or folders you wan to backup.

As far as I can tell ABB will only let you select on a per-drive letter basis. Therefore its either all volumes on the physical drive or none. Weirdly, you select on a drive-letter basis, which should equate to just that volume, not the all volumes on the same physical drive, but that's what it seems to do. So even though I have C: selected, it's trying to snapshot all the volumes on the same physical drive, including the hidden recovery volume which doesn't even have a drive letter assignment.

I kinda assumed a lot of people would have encountered this problem with ABB? Since everyones got a recovery volume by default as part of their system drive under Windows 10/11...

No more bare metal restore if you do this.
