    I can´t use Rebit for my System because i have 2 Partitions on it.

    I don´t need a Backup of my second Partition. I just need a Backup of my Systempartition.

    The Problem is, that all Partitions of my Systemdrive are greyed out.

    Not really comfortable.

    Will you change this in the near Future?

    Otherwise Rebit ist not useful for me.

    In order to be able to perform a full disk recovery or Bare Metal Recovery (BMR) Rebit must make a copy of the entire system disk. This includes all partitions on the system disk. To allow you to uncheck these partitions on the system disk would not allow Rebit to rebuild the disk as it was at the time the recovery point was made. So, this behavior will not change.

    Well, but you could allow reconfiguring Rebit to not backup the files on these partitions. Alternatively, backup everything by default, but allow user-configurable paths being excluded.

    Do take the snapshot if you think you must, so BMR will be able to restore all partitions, but don't keep making regular backups of files that the user does not want.
