I have the same problem

This happens when I exclude any folder in the C:\Users tree.
The cited conversation said that it was supposed to be fixed in future versions, but apparently it hasn’t.
If there isn’t a workaround I can’t use Comodo

Yeah, I’d like to know too. Somebody’s got to know how to fix this.

I’ve uninstalled Comodo and installed Paragon’s backup software. I would have preferred to use Comodo and I’ll try it again when the next version comes out.
