Strange backup error problem

Hi

I’m wondering if anyone can shed some light on a problem i’m having. I am using Comodo Back up v1.0.1.337 and run 3 backups:-

A sync backup
An incremental backup nightly
A full back up nightly

…all to an external USB2.0 hard drive which I rotate with a second one on a daily basis and it works ok in principal.

However I am getting errors with the full back up and incremental back up (sync is fine). The app emails me a each time it completes and i’ve pasted a small section of the email content here:-

Error - Backup “FSL Backup (Full)” completed with error.
Compared 13506 files, 2192 folders.

The files it says its having a problem with don’t actually exist, but the log file / email i received recently hit 25mb in size(!).

I have recreated my backup jobs and used a clean formatted HDD to back up to but it doesn’t seem to make a difference. The folder it says has these files in isn’t one and sometimes it varies between back ups.

Can someone point me in the right direction please?

Hi drewberts

Welcome to the forum

If this folder does not exist it may be that it is a hidden folder put there by some software install, as they are all graphic files (.bmp).

Can you go to folder options and check “show hidden files” and see if you can delete them. If not then can you put these files in your Comodo Backup exclude list?
