Backup will create only the file you tell it to create and include only the
folder set you specify. I don't understand how you can be so confused.

Only you know that. If you have configured Outlook to perform achiving,
then of course you do. If not, then you don't. Look at what you set in
File>Archive and right-click on your individual folders, choose Properties,
then the AutoArchive tab to see if you set any folder-specific options. If
you don't want Outlok to archive, turn it off. You can then close Outlook
and delete the archives you've created.

Whatever one contains the data you wish to save.
