Backing Up Files & Folders in ATIH 2012

Thread needs solution

I'm having a heck of a time backing up my files and folders in 2012 and being able to restore individual file or folders as needed. I have 3 partitions (C,D,E) and have set 2012 up to do a full backup and retain 3 backups. I perform a backup, go back to the backup and select Restore, but it appears to want to restore the entire partition and not giving me the option to restore individual files or folders.

What am I doing work and can someone instruct me how to achieve what I outlined above with this program?

Thanks for any insights/assistance.

Second question - are there options in 2012 that I am missing?

Thanks for the insights - I had finally figured it out - I needed to do a "File Backup" vs. the Disk/Partition Backup and then I was able to manage my files. So, thanks for the reply!

Whatever works for you but single files or folders are accessible and easily restoreable even when the backup is a partition or disk option backup. The explore or mount option is very easy to use as per my link in post #2.
