  I'm a bit confused.

  What do you mean by "[I] just used one of the config files to set it"?

  I'm not aware that Open-Shell Menu has any config files (just its own
Settings ("Settings for Open-Shell Menu ...")), nor what they "set".

  Did you accomplish to create/utilize

Start -> Programs -> System Utilities -> Backup -> Macrium -> Reflect
-> Macrium Reflect

(or similar) like I did?
