Which backup types can Windows Server Backup perform?

• A. File-level backups only.
• B. Full server backups, volume backups, and system state backups, with bare-metal recovery on supported hardware.
• C. Virtual machine backups only.
• D. Network share backups only.

Answer: (C)

Windows Server Backup is designed to protect multiple facets of a server, not just one narrow area. It supports full server backups (bare-metal recovery), backups of specific volumes, and backups of the system state. Bare-metal recovery means you can restore the entire server to hardware that Windows supports, so you’re not limited to reinstalling and rebuilding from scratch. While Hyper-V virtual machines can be included in a backup, the tool isn’t restricted to VM backups only. It also isn’t limited to just file-level backups or to network shares.

So the description that accurately reflects what Windows Server Backup can do is: full server backups, volume backups, and system state backups, with bare-metal recovery on supported hardware.
