Backup software testing

It then asks you if you still want to continue the restore or abort (I can't imagine why you would want to abort a restore). After saying OK, it then continues on & everything is fine.

Last week however, I got another error screen shortly after the first one saying the restore had "timed out". There was no option other than to say OK (& the progress bar was NOT all the way to the end). I had never seen this happen before, but I said OK & the system restarted & the funny thing is everything seemed to work fine at that point.......

How weird.....i've never had any of those issues.

Maybe you've got a program running in the background that locks access to particular files that SPB is trying to backup/restore?

I usually do my backups/restores with as little running (If any at all) as possible.
