I use a dual-boot with windows and Ubuntu
Every topic I've read says I "will need to unmount the drive I want to back up"
Is there any way to back up the system with apps I installed and everything from LiveCD or Windows? If yes how? How do I restore it?
I want to back up the system on the same Drive . I mean I have a C:, D:, F: (the partition I want to recover Ubuntu on) and the Sys, Swap partitions
I hate having to install apps, theme, servers every time.
Download the current stable version of Clonezilla (the iso file), and create a USB boot drive or CD boot disk. Boot from it and let Clonezilla do the job for you.
I suggest that you run at beginner level (I do that too after a few years). Make a compressed image of the whole drive. The image is a directory with a number of files, and Clonezilla can restore the system into the same drive or a new drive of at least the same size.
See this link: clonezilla.org

Please notice that you should backup to another drive, either connected via the network in another computer or via USB or eSATA in the same computer.
