RE: Backup failed!



Hello Peter,

Thanks for spend time on this post.

I'm glad to hear that things are working correctly for you now. I was just
writing to say that I hope everything is going well. Please do not hesitate
to let me know if this problem reoccurs or if there's anything else I can
do for you.

Best regards,

Terence Liu(MSFT)

| Thank you very much for your response Terence. After completing all three
| steps (as well as pointing the backup wizard to the correct folder) the
| backup worked with me initiating it manually. I will see tonight if the
| backup will run under the schedule that I have setup for it.
|
| Thanks again.
