ZIP Backups behaviour

Thread needs solution

Could someone please verify for me if this is the proper behaviour for saving ZIP backups.

1) Incremental or differential backups can not be created. -full only

2) ZIP backups can not be restored by True Image. An error is given. Restoration is only through a 3rd party app, ie. Winrar.

Zip backups aren't really restored in the sense that disk or partition backups can be. You simply open or extract file contents from zip, and copy across the ones you want to "restore" to another drive. If you use any Windows OS from XP on, you shouldn't need any third-party application to view, open or extract zip archives, as it's a native functionality of Windows.
