"upper volume filter driver"

Hi All,

Hi All,

i am suffering from an intermittent issue,my upper volume filter driver is working fine with all the features:
1.can take disk image (full disk).
2.volume image separately (C: ,D:)
3.also able to take incremental backup.
Now here the problem is coming while taking incremental backup only in case of C: volume i am getting the back up size
increment a lot, with out doing any modification in C volume(and this is happening only in case of c volume).
while taking the backup of another volume no silly increment in size,i am getting only the relevant increment in size which is OK.
but in case of C: i am getting continuous increment in size.
for ex : if i am taking a disk backup of a size 20GBthen from full disk backup taking the incremental backup,the size increases at time ‘t’
is around 100mb after time ‘t1’ the size increment becomes 300mb and so on increasing…:frowning:

=>i am not able to figure it out why it is happening whether it is due to my driver or application.

any suggestions greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

I suggest patience. You posted originally at 1am PST (4 EST) and then begged for answer 4 hours later

This capability already exists. Why did you need to write a new driver
for it?

Now here the problem is coming while taking incremental backup only in case of C: volume i am getting the back up size increment a lot, with out doing any modification in C volume(and this is happening only in case of c volume).

=>i am not able to figure it out why it is happening whether it is due to my driver or application.

There are many, many things going on in the background on the root
volume. Registry changes, event logs, file system journals, recycle
bin, paging file, system restore points, etc.
