Hi.
Downloaded latest vertion last week and now running FBackup4 on 3 PCs and all work when I set the schedule up to back up on each working day at say 5 mins time.....I sit and watch FBackup 4 start, run and finish and it tells me that it is successfull. However when I look the next day it has not run. Can you help please.

Hi,
Please send us the last backup log from View->Job Logs->Last backup log.

Also send us the SchedLgU.Txt file from C:Windows.

Send the files to info[at]fbackup[dot]com

Hi,
Please download the latest version of FBackup 4.2 build 156.

If you still have the problem, please recreate the scheduled task.

Do you have the same problem with the other backup jobs?

I have the same problem. The first time I set up a scheduled backup it runs, but the next day it fails to start. The summary always says "Last backup on:", followed by the date of the first backup, the statement that the backup was succesful, and "Next scheduled backup:" followed by tomorrow's date. Unfortunately, when the time comes for the next scheduled backup, nothing happens - except that the date given for the next backup is changed to tomorrow.
I am running Version 4.2 Build 156 under Windows XP.

Hi,
Gibarrow, what backup type do you use: Full or Mirror?

If you use Mirror, please make sure there are new or modified files to be backed up.
Sirtom1961, we are talking about FBackup. I asked you if you have other backup jobs from FBackup with the same problem, not about other backup applications.
