Resolved Windows7 backup fails to complete.

PeteC, thanks, just started with Acronis and workings is very limited indeed. I note that Acronis displays all backups are shown on page. Can you please, inform me step by step, on saving current backup to two separate HD,this would be most appreciated. At present Acronis backups by default is "non-stop Backup ".

 

PeteC, I wish to make backups to enable me to recover computer when current instal becomes corrupted. Acronis is at present running in the non-stop mode, not my choosing. I too have four external hard drive configured in my setup, G/H/J/K. Acronis is at present using the H EHD in non-stop mode.

 

Tried to revert Windows 7 backups, remains in failure to complete and displays error 0x80070002.

 

This maybe of some interest, that after reading many comments in several various Forums relating to "Backup failures" with Windows 7 64Bit, appears hundreds of people are searching for an answer. Even it appears, Microsoft is keeping a very low profile and many people say, any letters sent to Microsoft have failed to be answered. Up till now, I really believed I was the only person experiencing this error.

 

Arie, I do agree in what you say, however at present I am left with no backup facilities, and reading other Forums on this topic, it appears that hundreds of other computer users are in the same predictiment. Even it appears Microsoft will not comment or try to solve this problem.

 

Checking the Restore part, I notice two recent dates are shown. Are these in fact backups made by other software titles backup, if correct could I use these references, should I require to restore my computer becoming corrupt?

 

Arie, twice I undertook a complete reinstall to HP factory settings, each time after, still unable to carry out a backup of my computer. As is at the moment, no chance of a successful backup, apparently there is no solution, even at Microsoft.

 

PeteC, I indeed have the Acronis software and made hard copy of their instruction manual. Reasons unknown to me, Acronis installed caused such trouble that I uninstalled, put computer back to factory setting and reinstalled all previous software titles including Acronis. An Acronis new reinstal, repeated references to backups made before the factory settings.
Again uninstalled Acronis from my computer, incidently no reference is made on the Screen or the Acronis reference manual correct procedure to uninstal Acronis. I certainly appear to have got myself into a fine mess over the issue of computer backups, as my good lady says so often now days, my thinking memory is failing.

 

PeteC, I must thank you sincerely for time taken in detailing steps for Acronis 2012. I did exactly steps as detailed by you. A factory setting was undertaken a few days, procedure taking 8 hours. Acronis 2012 was installed from the Acronis CD which I purchased in case of mishaps. The external drive used for the Acronis backups was checked for any faults showed it was free from any errors or faults. I would be prepared to try installing Acronis again without the need for a factory reset.
