Startup Disk - Disk configuration

Post by saad » Thu Apr 24, 2025 9:17 pm

I am trying a trial version and created a WINPE startup disk. When I boot using the Startup Disk, my computer's disk configuration changes. Drive C: becomes without a drive letter and the second drive, which usually is drive D: changes to C:.
When I open R-Drive Image program on desktop, it shows the correct disk configuration.

The startup version assigns their own drive letters because it doesn't know their original letters.

Is there an option to exclude files when creating a disk backup?
