    I'm running version 9 and version 11 ...
    but the screen you want is the same for both ... and I assume the path / screens you found is the same one.
    Interesting question per multiple partitions and/or all ...
    I setup the kids HP with 4x partitions.
    I resized C:\, left HP's OEM backup partition as is, and added two additional partitions. Later I imaged HP's partition onto my eternal for safe keeping. I image OS drive as required. Kids don't have admin privileges so OS/programs do not change that much. I backup there data files using Syncback.
    For myself, I would be more comfortable creating a unique image file for each partition.... but that's just me. If something happened / corrupted the file, I would only lose one, not both. On a good day, flip a quarter, both ways would work.
