This would be good to know for those users that are willing to go that way. </p> http://www.fbackup.com/forum/topic/windows-task-scheduler-cant-run-fbackup#post-1728 Fri, 10 Sep 2010 10:35:00 +0000 Admin 1728@http://www.fbackup.com/forum/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>Please note the FBackup scheduler does not run when no user is logged on. </p> http://www.fbackup.com/forum/topic/windows-task-scheduler-cant-run-fbackup#post-1727 Thu, 09 Sep 2010 17:54:28 +0000 jim.myers 1727@http://www.fbackup.com/forum/ <p>I set up Windows task scheduler to run FBackup on Windows Server 2003, Windows Vista, and Windows XP and FBackup does not run even though it seems to get the command and indicate the next Windows scheduled run time. And yes, I am uaing fbaSchedStarter.exe /R "job name" -STD. I looked at the posts and it seems a lot of people had trouble with this in the past. In my case, the task is set to run when the user is logged off. However, the computers never sleep, especially the server. Any ideas? </p> http://www.fbackup.com/forum/topic/fbackup-start#post-1286 Wed, 21 Apr 2010 14:10:14 +0000 WallieW 1286@http://www.fbackup.com/forum/ <p>That's the trick!<br /> Works now here.</p> <p>Thanks! </p> http://www.fbackup.com/forum/topic/fbackup-start#post-1280 Thu, 15 Apr 2010 11:54:19 +0000 Admin 1280@http://www.fbackup.com/forum/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>Please follow these steps to manually set FBackup to run at Windows startup:<br /> 1.

Have to start it manually also.<br /> And that's the problem...I'm Dutch, I'm over 50.....I just forget.<br /> Please tell me if it is possible to set FBackup to start automaticly?!</p> <p>Thanks in advance.</p> <p>WallieW. </p> http://www.fbackup.com/forum/topic/uac-popup-every-fbackup-start-windows-7#post-1200 Tue, 23 Mar 2010 17:44:07 +0000 TheFoxMan 1200@http://www.fbackup.com/forum/ <p>fuggi - I too felt your pain and found a solution at the following Win 7 support forum.

But it sounds like there are no changes planned on the program. </p> http://www.fbackup.com/forum/topic/uac-popup-every-fbackup-start-windows-7#post-1183 Thu, 18 Mar 2010 16:19:30 +0000 Admin 1183@http://www.fbackup.com/forum/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>You can avoid the UAC popup for FBackup only if you disable UAC. </p> http://www.fbackup.com/forum/topic/uac-popup-every-fbackup-start-windows-7#post-1181 Thu, 18 Mar 2010 12:53:20 +0000 fuggi 1181@http://www.fbackup.com/forum/ <p>Hello! </p> <p>Thanks for providing this great backup tool, I really love this tool to run my backups. I have been using this tool for quite a while now on WinXP and now moved to Win 7. </p> <p>Now, everytime I start the program I get a UAC popup telling me that the programm wants to change something on my PC. Even if I select "Run as Administrator" I get this pop up. The application is running fine besides that but I do not see a reason for this popup. </p> <p>Is the program doing something special on startup and do all users get this popup? </p> <p>Thanks for your feedback!<br /> fuggi </p> http://www.fbackup.com/forum/topic/launching-fb#post-1110 Tue, 23 Feb 2010 14:11:13 +0000 Admin 1110@http://www.fbackup.com/forum/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>The initial problem reported in this post was about FBackup not starting.<br /> It seems that problem is solved now.</p> <p>For the scheduler problem, please send us (to info[at]fbackup[dot]com)<br /> - the .fkc catalog file for that job. You can find the .fkc file if you go to View->Open folder->Destination folder.<br /> - the .log file for the last backup job. To find it, please go to: View->Job Logs->Last Backup Log.<br /> - the schedule task for this job. You can find it if you go to: Start->Control Panel->Scheduled Tasks<br /> - the SchedLgU.Txt file from C:Windows.<br /> Put the files into a zip archive. </p> http://www.fbackup.com/forum/topic/launching-fb#post-1108 Mon, 22 Feb 2010 16:36:25 +0000 dpraven 1108@http://www.fbackup.com/forum/ <p>Ok, sorry it was hidden, however if I try to schedule a backup, the same thing happens.<br /> I would like to schedule a backup to keep a rolling 31 days, ie d1 d2 d3 ... d31 and then start back with day 1. I am trying to backup to a remote network drive. What am I doing wrong in the schedule that cause the problem? I didn't set "LOAD" is that the problem. I set it to delete the file before the backup starts. I can send you the script if that would help that is causing the problem.<br /> Thanks Dave </p> http://www.fbackup.com/forum/topic/launching-fb#post-1004 Fri, 19 Feb 2010 09:21:43 +0000 Admin 1004@http://www.fbackup.com/forum/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>Please see if that folder is not hidden. </p> http://www.fbackup.com/forum/topic/launching-fb#post-1003 Fri, 19 Feb 2010 06:27:41 +0000 dpraven 1003@http://www.fbackup.com/forum/ <p>Ok, 1.
