Never liked windows backup, shadow copy is seperate from the backup software that microsoft puts on the servers its more for in case you delete something thats important then to make backups to media you cant choose where the data is backed up windows hides it so you cant delete it by mistake
The only options i remember in shadow copy is how often and how much space can windows use
