Does a Disc and partition back up include all my data files, music files, email etc?

Thread needs solution

Hi there - i have just installed Acronis True image Home 2012 and ran a full back up last night. I chose the disc and partition back up with incremental backups daily.
Does this backup include all my data folders/files, music, email etc (i chose the c drive which has everything on it).
Thanks

Whichever disk or partition you choose for a backup, the entire disk or partition, respectively, is backed up--all the directories, all the files (data, system, hidden, etc.). There are a couple of important exceptions: ati automatically excludes any hibernation or page file from the backup because once the backup is  restored and you boot up into windows, windows will automatically rebuild the hibernation or page files so there is no need to include them in the backup -- this greatly reduces backup size and time. There are other files that you may exclude (temp files , etc.) if you so choose when you set up the backup.
