213 is buggy
Hello.
I have the same issue with Build 213, this is 100% issue with this build since I had no problem with previous one and once I uninstalled 213 and setup the older one I have no problem.
Vista x64, when preparing the shadow copy the program takes about a minute and then VSS crashes and Windows displays a dialog to close the service or debug it.

I'm having the same issue since installing the 213 version. However, the "preparing shadow copies" never finishes on scheduled backups only. If I run it manually the same backup works. I am running Vista x64 with all the latest updates installed. Previous versions work fine, only the 213 version causes the problem.

Hi,
We will make a new release these days and the backup open files feature will be improved.
In the meantime, you can uncheck the "Backup open files" option from Backup Properties->Advanced page.

I am running Bit Defender Internet Security, backup4all lite, Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit. I too have the same problem with it hanging on preparing shadow copy. How do I downgrade to a previous version that works?
