Registry Backup Problem
« on: March 12, 2017, 12:25:32 pm »
When i do a backup using the fallback method, i get this error:



[3/12/2017 - 1:39:22 PM] Backing Up File: C:\Users\Administrator\ntuser.dat
[3/12/2017 - 1:39:22 PM] Result: Failed - Error: -1 (API Reg Save Failed (), Tried File Copy, File In use, Cannot copy.)

I did an error check thats showed no errors in my c drive. Any ideas?? :sad:

Win10 64-Bit Home

I fixed it i think? I edited the security settings for the .exe. I gave it full control.

See how it goes but it will be looked at as I've passed it on.

- Did you uncheck "Always use Fallback ......... " in the "Setting" menu ?

If you uncheck that option then RB will use the VSS file copy subsystem. And then VSS overcomes the "File in use" problem.
