What is the difference between a full backup, incremental backup, and a custom backup in Windows Server 2016?

A full backup is a backup of an entire system, including all system files, programs, and data files. The full backup changes each file's archive attribute to show that it has been backed up. An incremental backup only backs up files that are new or that have been updated. The Windows Server 2016 incremental option backs up only files that have the archive attribute marked. When it backs up a file, the incremental backup removes the archive attribute to show that the file has been backed up. Finally, a custom backup enables you to configure a file-by-file backup so that you back up only a specific drive, folder, or subfolder, for example. You can also choose to back up operating system data and information. Further, you can create a binary or image backup that backs up the entire system in binary format (which doesn't allow for restoring a specific folder or drive).
