In "the Task Manager" I closed "Registry Backup" and after that I tried "manual backup" :wink: and it worked, I did a logoff and log in again then autobackup worked as usual.
But autobackup usually works!
It may be that my brother's computer is tricky, just wanted to tell if it's something not right.

If you perform a manual backup, and the same day an auto backup, the last one won't have success because there is already a manual backup.
Is it your case?

Nope! Sometimes "autobackup" doesn't work, "Registry Backup" starts and if I take a look in process explorer it says RB is running and nothing happens, eventually I have to end the program. I have not found anything patterns, when it goes wrong and why.

I installed 1.4.1 official version and then I started the computer this morning "autobackup" was using "Fallback backup method" and VSS didn't start.
this is from the log file:
2012-09-14 - 05:34:22] Waiting for Volume Shadow Copy snapshot...
[2012-09-14 - 05:35:22] Volume Shadow Copy Failed! vss_7_64.exe isn't running. Check the Log_VSS.txt file to view any errors.
[2012-09-14 - 05:35:22] Is vss_start.exe Running: True
[2012-09-14 - 05:35:22] Is vss_7_64.exe Running: True
[2012-09-14 - 05:35:22] Is vss_pause.exe Running: False
I have tried to delay "autobackup" 4 minutes it works sometimes and sometimes vss fails.

Yeah if you have it set under the advanced settings to only do 1 auto backup a day then it will just close.
It will look at the backups and see if a backup was already made for that day. :wink:

In these days I thought about a new feature that it could be useful to restore system without GUI.
A command line switch as -restorelastbackup to restore last created backup through a shortcut.
Manual way is calling dos_restore.cmd file, but at the moment it is needed to update target path every time I create a new backup.
Shane:
The dos_restore.cmd is only when restoring from a recovery console. It wont work if you run it in Windows.
I will keep the command line option open and see what i can do down the road. :wink:
