Question Windows 10 backup and file history of multiple internal drives

[OffbeatBryce]

Hello,

Windows 10 allows me to selet multiple internal and external drives for backup. After it backs up it's shown that it's backed up on the backup drive but file history only shows my C drive no other internal drives are visible in the file history. Is this the way it's intended for Windows 10 or is this a bug of some kind? If it's supposed to be this way is there a program where I can pay once for that allows file history of multiple internal and external drives?

Thanks,

Bryce

File history is designed to be connected to a single drive and do interval backups; so it's a feature not a bug.

The built in backup facilities in Windows are woefully inadequate.
Use a different tool.
I use Macrium Reflect. Even the free version works well.

With all of my respect, I beg to differ. Count me as one who does not use anything else but WIndows 7 Backup.

MS wanted to incorporate a system people would use, so simplicity won over robustness. IMO, for a basic system consisting of one internal system drive, and one external hard drive (to store system images) File History combined with System Image is adequate, but no more than...
