Hi,

Please make an additional scheduler for that job to run at a time when you are in front of the computer, does it works?
If yes, please try to change it to run at a time when there is no user logged on. See if you still have the problem.

There is a user logged on 24/7 but I'll try to scedule a backup during the day, even though I never knowwhet times I'll actually be using the computer.

This will happen when I get out of hospital :)

No

I now have 2 scheduled jobs running daily, one at 00:03 and the other at 13:03 this week I have had the backups run on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday at 00:03 only, never at 13:03

That is not possible as Blue Iris video monitoring software runs 24/7 so a user has to be logged on permanently.

Hi,

Please make sure you have the latest version of Backup4all installed (5.1.596)
Try to manually create a scheduled task from Control Panel->Task Scheduler to run another application (for example: calculator)
Does it run? if yes, please see what is different than the task you created from Backup4all?
