    Question Paragon Hard Disk Manager "Selected partition does not support this operation"

    I am on the trial of Paragon Hard Disk Manager for Mac (So I hope I can resolve this quickly! Heh) trying to see whether it can reliably do backups and restore of Boot Camp partitions on a Mac.
    I haven't tried WinClone yet because I have other Paragon Products registered already... would like to stick with one (well-known) brand, and I also get a discount for Paragon HDM as opposed to WinClone.

    I am currently trying this on a mid-2011 Mac Mini, and when I try this:

    1. Go to "Backup and Restore"
    2. Click "Create New Archive"
    3. Select the Windows OS in the top list (shows only 2: Windows OS and OS X) - which selects the correct NTFS "BOOTCAMP" Partition below
    4. Click "Continue"
    5. Click "Backup"


    I get a pop-up that says "Selected partition does not support this operation".

    ANY help (while I am still on my trial) would be appreciated!

    My info:

    Hard Disk Manager for Mac TRIAL Version 1.1.159 (Latest as of today)
    Mac Mini (mid-2011) running OS X Sierra 10.12.3 (Latest as of today)
    System Integrity Protection: DISABLED
    Partition Table: GPT + MBR
    Partitions:
    0. EFI (FAT32)
    1. MacOS (HFS+)
    2. Recovery HD (HFS+)
    3. BOOTCAMP (NTFS)

    FYI - I am perfectly capable of booting into my Windows Boot Camp partition - there is nothing wrong with the Windows installation. THAT"s why I want to take a backup/snapshot! :-)

    Thanks!
