The best free backup software you can get comes with windows

when you run windows Backup you will be presented with a load of options - simple enough walkthrough - one of the options will be where do you want to store the backup - just make sure that you are directing the backup save to an external HDD.

I would get a product called Macrium Reflect, that is one I am familiar with and would trust... Here's the link: https://www.macrium.com/reflectfree 

Yeah i was checking that one too.

 

I should only select the Windows partition to backup right?
