Backup does not include Windows Update history

Summary

The VSS snapshot specification is set to exclude Windows update history by default. As a result, ActiveImage Protector's Full Backup does not include the update history in the created backup file.

Workaround

Please delete the following values by using Registry Editor:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetControlBackupRestoreFilesNotToSnapshotWUA

*  Delete the registry setting for the VSS-excluded file to include Windows Update history in the backup. However, be aware that you need to change the setting at your own risk.
