If the partition is locked and cannot be resized, the wizard makes the system reboot to

create the backup capsule and automatically boots the system again. (The rebooting

mechanism is different for different versions of Windows).

5. Activate the bootable recovery environment if needed. With its help you will get the choice to boot directly

from the backup capsule for maintenance or recovery purposes every time you start up the computer.

This operation will result in overwriting of the current MBR, thus in case of having a third

side boot manager, it will be removed. To avoid that you can save the current MBR with the

help of the

Edit/View Sectors tool.

The backup capsule can only be bootable if it is located on the bootable device (assigned in

the BIOS).

6. Start the operation (by clicking the Next button) or return to correct the settings.

After the operation is completed you can place backup archives into the created backup capsule.

This operation can also be accomplished with the WinPE recovery environment.

used here).

3. On the Wizard's Welcome page, click the Next button.

4. On the What to back up page, mark the appropriate option opposite a hard disk’s name or a partition’s name

depending on the chosen task.
