Yep!

Edge isn't offered for any of the computers I have.

That is what this XP computer had me to do when I started using it.
But it wasn't a USB stick it wanted it made on CD's or DVD's.

I was thinking each Incremental backup only has the changes made since
the last Full Backup or the last Incremental backup it made, and to Restore
First the Full Backup is Restored and then Each One of the Incremental
backups are Restored in the order that they were made.

As I wrote earlier, I only made a Incremental backup one time and went back
to doing Full Backups after I tried the Incremental method.
