On my W10 machine has two SSD's, a C: drive and a second SSD mounted as a folder (c:\Video) on my main C: drive.

What does IFW do when making a full backup of my C drive when it runs across the Video folder that
represents the mount point of my second SSD?

Do I need to un-mount it first?
Does it try and add the contents of the second SSD to the image?
Does it preserve the mount point folder C:\Video and restore the folder if the C drive is reloaded from the backup image?

Why it matters: C drive stuff changes frequently so I like to do full images for disaster recovery. Video files don't change
so I would like to do a separate differential backup on the SSD containing the videos less frequently. Yes the Second SSD could just be just another letter
drive but I have scripts that expect the the data to be located in the C:\Video folder.

Thanks Craig

It's not file based, it's only going to backup the data on the hard
drive. The junction point would be restored since it's part of the file
system data.
