peterr:
My desktop seemed to work quickly and successfully and the log file opend in MS Word.

My laptop similarly configured, took twice as long, appears successful yet the log file opens in notepad.

I have MSIE configured the same with Word being the choice under the program tab on both pcs. I do not see where I can make Word the default in the laptop.

Why would it take twice as long for the laptop with the same ram  and processor (6GB and i5) to backup but more importantly, how do I get the laptop to open the log file in Word instead of Notepad?
Thank you

Don't know why your laptop takes longer time to take backup!

It worked and thank you very much.
Perhaps the speed thing was not ordinary and I will see what tomorrow brings.

Tomas_Sweden good job helping out :-)

As for the backups taking longer. The old version of the backup program only waited 60 sec for VSS before it said it failed and used the fall back method.

The new version now waits as long as needed till VSS is ready, or if it crashes.

So the backups are taking longer now because VSS on the system is rather slow for some reason :wink:

I performed backup and restore this am and both ps took the same amount of time.
However, I tested the one time per day, so rebooted, and on each, the backup flashed but disappeared.
I then rebooted a third time and no backup program appeared.
I would say all is worlking well and I agree with you that Thomas is a great assett.
I wish I had the expertise to do the same.
