Cannot set a backup job to include encyption (full backup). Error message "Cannot create independent splits using Zip 2 compatible encryption".

Is this a bug or can someone advise? Was not a problem in version 5. Thanks.

I have identical problem. Please find solution.

Hi,

We found the problem and we will fix it.

This was fixed, then at the latest update Build 133, the problem has re-appeared. Cannot set encryption or password on a full backup. Help please!

Hi,

Do you still have the problem with build 137?

I have the same problem on Build 188. Windows 10, Full Backup. It won't let me set encryption with or without file splits.

Has this been fixed yet?

A bit more detail on this:
1. I set up the backup job and was able to backup successfully with encryption.
2. I then did a restore to check that I had backed up correctly.
3. After that I got the error message on the backup job referred to above - "Cannot create independent splits using Zip 2 compatible encryption"
4. I deleted the backup job and created a new one and the error disappeared.

Hi,

I was not able to reproduce the problem.
What was different between the two jobs you created?

Softland thanks for the response.

The 2 jobs were identical. However, I note that now even after removing the job and recreating it afresh, the error occurs.
