    What exactly would happen if turned TimeFreeze on, installed an imaging program (or used a portable application) and hot imaged my system partition, saved the image to another non shadowed partition?

    hypothetical question on imaging the system partition .

    Exclude partition from system image.

    I have two drives in my system.

    Disk manager details - The first drive has 3 partitions:

    • System Reserved (System, Active, Primary)
    • Windows 7 (Page File, Primary)
    • Data Partition 1 (Primary)
    The second drive has 2 partitions

    • Windows 10 (Boot, Page File, Crash Dump, Primary)
    • Data Partition 2 (Primary)
    The first data partition has user profiles and shares used for both operating systems. The second data partition is just extra space to hold data temporarily.

    This being said, I would like to create a system image with everything but the second data partition. However, it shows up as a system partition in the system image creation module. If fact, all the partitions except Windows 7 show as system and are default
    selected and cannot be deselected.

    Why does the second data partition show as system? Can I remove the system attribute? I have made sure nothing on this volume is indexed and that it does not contain any page, hibernation, or other system files. One of the folders is compressed, but that
    is the only thing special on the volume.
