How do I get Backup to select system files?

Hi All

I want Backup to select all of my system files within folders like "Program Files" and "Windows" (and their subfolders) but there will be lots of different file extensions, some of which I don't know. Does anyone know how to do this? The help pages I've accessed don't mention system files at all.

This pc is running Windows 11, and I'm backing up to cloud storage.

Thanks

Hi SA

That's useful, I'll check out Macrium Reflect as I hadn't heard of it before. 

Thanks for your prompt response.

Hello J CRAWLEY. My suggestion is using Macrium Reflect for the jobs you are doing. Using Norton to do a cloud backup of your entire OS or even portions of it will require more storage space that your plan gives. Thus extra cost. I use it on all my devices and backup to a local, secondary HD for added security. Very easy to use.
