   On Linux, it is usual to back up the specific files that you care about.   
   That way, you can do an equally specific restore.   
      
   There’s a lot of voodoo black magic surrounding how Windows installations   
   are put together, to try to explain why selective file restores all too   
   often don’t work. That’s less of an issue on Linux.
