Hi RolandT,

Where are you saving your backup file ? Is it a network location ?
Make sure that you have full right there (read, write and delete).

I'm saving to my external hard disk. I have full access rights to my externa disk

Just to be sure, from Windows Explorer right click on the folder where you are backing up (on the external hard drive), then go to Properties and select the Secuity tab. Check the permissions for your account.

Strange, I created a folder called "backup" on my external hard disk so I assumed that the fact I created to folder meant I had the full control on the folder.

When I run the backup as "admin" it worked; so I now set "users" to have full control and now it also works.

thanks Eugen for your patience:-)
