Cannot copy files using the mirror backup type under Vista

In Windows Vista, when backing up files using the mirror backup type, if you receive an error that files cannot be copied please uncheck the "Copy NTFS security permission" option in Backup Properties (Ctrl+P).

NTFS file permissions are used to control the access that a user, group, or application has to files. This includes everything from reading a file to modifying and executing the file. There are five NTFS file permissions: read, write, read & execute, modify and full Control.

Step by step instructions on how to disable the "Copy NTFS security permission" option:
1. Open Backup4all.
2. Right-click the backup job and select Properties.
3. Under Type, go to Mirror page.
4. Uncheck the Copy NTFS security permissions option.
5. Press Save and try again.

ReviewsReviews

"To be honest, I always say <<I'll burn that backup folder someday this week>> and the week passes without having my files backed up.

Reviews

With Backup4all this issue can disappear, and the stress related to <<what if my hard drive crashes>> problem will disappear. I think that I'll leave the backup tasks for this program from now on. What about you?"
