Version 5 Build 549 Issue - Windows 8

[Scooter1836]

This issue happened to me in build 455 and was corrected in a build 460 . But the issue is back again.

The backup is not backing up changes. When I run the backup it backs up nothing. when I check the statistics for the next backup it states 90+GB of changes to back up, which is correct. This was working properly in the last release

Here is the statistics that show 90+GB to back up

I have the same problem since i update it to 5.1.549 on a Microsoft Windows Server 2012!

The backup is not backing up changes. When I run the backup it backs up nothing. This was working properly in the last release

What can i do? Is there any way to downgrade?!

On a Mircosoft Windows Server 2008 R2 everything still works fine but not on Microsoft Windows Server 2012!

The only thing that works for the moment is to clean up the last backup und run it manually. I think it is something with the USN change journal. When i clean the last successfull backup and make it manually this is in the log file:

[13.08.2014 10:33:12] USN change journal cannot be used on path "D:". Reason: The journal was deleted\reseted

Please help!!!
