Pre/Post processes allow you to specify a command to run before (Pre) and/or after the execution (Post) of a backup.

Services normally lock associated files while the Windows computer is running (i.e. these files will not be backed up). Examples of services are DHCP and WINS. You can back up Windows services using the Pre/Post processes.

The steps that apply to Windows service backups are identical to file system backups. However, you must know the specific file path of the service files.
