    Is it possible...?

    Or have to use an user account (or create a "backup user/admin" account, for that matter...?

    I don't think this would be possible, as a user Admin or otherwise, you can't run NT Authority accounts. You'd have to log on as NT USER and that is possible, but necessarily long winded, and wouldn't be recommended.

    What are you hoping NT User would give you that your Admin logon wouldn't?

    - Windows' scheduler takes NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM or SYSTEM as the user when it's being configured from an Admin account.

    - By using the SYSTEM account instead of his/her own account, one can change his/her password without re-configuring Acronis.

    Correct...?

    I chose to create a separated "Backup Operator" account, and prevent it from showing on the logon screen by using the method mentioned in the below webpage.

    Unsure, but think you can also prevent an account from showing up on the logon screen, by removing it from the User group. However I'm on a Home edition so lusrmgr.msc doesn't work.
