I just want sector-level Windows operating-system backup. With ability to make incremental backups, use NTFS journals and make Windows system databases transactions quiescene like VSS does.
Is this possible with snapshot-client? In snapshot-client d...

If snapshot client uses Microsoft VSS, but not for operating-system backup, then for what reason it at all uses VSS? Only to make open-file backups from non-system drives?
