Well, I just put there some args I wanted to use and removed unnecessary ones: 
perms, owner, group, links, hardlinks are useless when backing up from a 
Windows system (which stores on NTFS, thus no perms, owner, group can be 
useful).

0__0 It seems that I'm trying my best to do so :-/

Well, don't understand why I shouldn't be edit these to suit my needs...

OK, I'm on my way... And it seems that you were right!
I've set back to the original RsyncArgs and now backup has begun.

What I see is (excerpt):

Can you tell me why it should tell things like "size doesn't match"? Could you 
please explain what's going on?

Thanks!
