Specified file does not exist. (0x40011)

I am new to TI and using my new Vista machine.

I am trying to set a task to back up < File Archive> my FireFox and Thunderbird Profile files to an external USB drive. The folders to be backed up are in c:\Users\<me>\Application Data\ <Mozilla & Thunderbird>

I note that because I just went through a frustrating episode trying to set the Vista Permissions so I could even read the Application Data Folder contents. That is solved. My Administrator token is now the Owner of c:\ and all subfolders. Also, SYSTEM has Full Control Permissions for the Application Data folder.

So, I set up the tasks, and run them manually for test. I get the following message:

E00040011: Failed to backup file or folder 'C:\Users\Charlie\Application Data\Mozilla'.
Specified file does not exist. (0x40011)
Tag = 0x497A70FDD71A3F48

I get the prompt to Retry / Ignore or Cancel. I finally selected Ignore and I get the msg: The operation was successfully completed. The archive files (TBird.tib and FireFox.tib) do exist with current time stamp and when I do a VALIDATE on the file archives I get: The operation was successfully completed, response.

Based on the VALIDATE results, but without actually doing a RECOVER with these files, I assume the archive was completed properly. If that is so, why do I get the error messages? Is the file that "doesn't exist" to TI the Mozilla folder or the archive, FireFox.tib?

Thanks for your help,
Charlie

OK. I submitted the request for technical assistance along with requested files.

I have since done a RESTORE to a different location and, indeed, the path is there, but not the desired files. So no back up archive is being created, as indicated by the error msg.

I tried a test back up of a different folder and that worked fine. I am now wondering whether this is still an issue with Vista permissions for the Application Data folder. As I originally indicated this was an issue until I finally took ownership of my entire C:\ drive. But with the above results, I am still wondering if this is still an issue...
