I have Samsung J7 prime with Android 7.0. I'm trying to back up my personal data to a SanDisk Usb drive, but I do not want to just back up everything that's on there and can be backed up. I only want to back up my pictures, videos and documents, no apps or app settings or anything. However every time I plug the pen drive in, all those app files like com.whatsapp and com.google.android and stuff automatically loads itself into the usb. I have already turned off the auto backup feature that's available in the pre-installed USB Backup app, and formatted the drive from within the phone, to no avail. I tried Googling, nothing came up specific for USB Drives, all of them are for cloud based accounts.

Please help me! I don't want to back up my apps because I can always decide to install them again and easily from playstore.

Some help and guidance will be truly appreciated. I'm trying from last night now still not able to figure out.
