All files and directories that you have selected for automatical backup are shown in the file list. You can add files or directories with drag & drop. For each Backup Set, only files and directories from one volume can be included, but multiple Backup Sets can be linked to form a backup job list. Create one Backup Set per volumne first and then link those Backup Sets to form a chain.
Alternatively you can use the buttons "Create item" and "Remove item" to add or remove data to or from the list. You can also use the DEL key on your keyboard to remove items from the list.

Create file list To easily create a file list, use the "Create item" button. A dialog is then shown in which you can select the data you want to backup and add it to your selection".
You can include up to 255 directories (64 in the freeware version) in each backup set. This should be completely sufficient, because directories can also be saved recursively (with subdirectories). e.g. "C:\Program Files\*" counts as one directory, no matter how many subfolders it contains.
Only the files of one volume can be selected per Backup Set. If you want to save directories from different volumes in one step, you must create one backup set for each volume and then link them to form a backup job chain.
You can backup your whole hard drive with Z-DBackup (i.e. entry "C:\*"), but you could not restore your operating system from such a backup. To create an image of a whole hard drive use the Windows Image Backup feature of Z-DBackup.
