Registry Backup Beta
Shane:
So I noticed something strange with the reg backup today.
I turn my computer off every night and turn it on in the morning. The reg backup is set to run at system startup for the current user.
So I turn my computer on and go back in the house and get a cup of coffee. When i come back out the reg backup is just sitting there at the main Window. It isnt doing anything, no errors or nothing.
The auto backup is suppose to click the backup button and then close when it finishes.
So I simply clicked the backup button, it made the backup and then closed. For some odd reason the backup button didnt get clicked this time.
So I will be looking into and see if I can find out why it didnt. This could explain the random times the program isnt closing for people.
I will get an update out soon and have you guys test :-)

Shane:
Found it, a simple timing problem.
I had it start the process before the auto flag got enabled and there was only a 250ms before it would start. So if the machine didnt respond fast enough the auto flag didnt set.
Simple fix, I have it set the auto flag before starting the process :-)
V1.4.2 is released.

The latest version of RB doesn't always work for me.
I have tried to delay autoback and have only 1 backup per day, but I get "fallback backup method".
There is something with 1.4.2 and 1.4.1 that doesn't work so good for me. Version 1.4.0 worked better.
What is changed in the later versions?

Shane:
Next time you reboot and it runs check the task scheduler and see if it is still running in the background :-)

Tomas_Sweden:
Yes in task scheduler I see "The operation completed successfully. (0x0)"
and I saw in Process Explorer that "vss_7_64.exe" was started.
In log file I get this: "Is vss_pause.exe Running: False"
VSSC is started.
I did a manual backup now and I got "Currently using fallback method instead of Volume Shadow Copy Service"
and if I take a look in "Process Explorer" I see that vss_pause.exe doesn't close.
