Whenever I try to exit I get a pop up window with "Cannot exit application while busy." None of the backup jobs appear to be running. Using 4.8.285, any ideas?

Hi,
It is possible that the backup is running in background. Please open Task Manager and see if the fbackup.exe process is running.

Do you know you can monitor your backups remotely with Backup4all Monitor? You can read more here: https://www.backup4all.com/backup4all-monitor.html

I ended up killing it in the task manager and when I restart it I can now successfully exit without that error.
BTW, I assume you meant to write check for fbacmd.exe not fbackup.exe since when FBackup is open fbackup.exe appears in the task manager regardless of whether a backup job is running or not.
In any case, I did originally check the task manager and while fbackup.exe was there fbacmd.exe was not - I run all my backups from the command line.
