I've set up an administrator account and several standard accounts
(including my own) on my system as suggested in one of the Vista tip graphics. I backup frequently, so I have made an initial full file backup using the administrator account. I set it up so that it backs up weekly. However, I just realized that using my everyday standard account won't allow the backup to proceed. So...I went into policies and added BACKUP user type to my everyday standard account. I then tried a follow up backup. It now asked me for either the standard account password or the administrator password. If I enter the former, I get a message stating Windows Backup --------------------------- Windows could not launch the automatic backup job for the following reason: Access is denied. (0x80070005) Try again. --------------------------- OK --------------------------- If I enter the latter (administrator account), I get this message --------------------------- Windows Backup --------------------------- The RUNAS command is not supported. You must run this program as the logged-in user. --------------------------- OK --------------------------- For crying out loud... haha ![]() btw, I get these messages logged in as standard account...with Backup member policy. |

If you create a new backup job as the logged on user, you might find that it
works. You are trying to run another user's job. I know that Vista claims you should be able to do this, but if Backup only runs in the logged on user's context, then you're attempting to run an illegal job. Try it. I'm going to try it too. Hopefully, they'll have this fixed before it goes gold. --- Dave "echoland" wrote in message ...

Echoland,
I showed your post to one of the developers. He thinks you might have administrator's account and an account member of the backup operators. If so, you are hitting a bug in the backup app. The workaround is to use fast user switching to log on as the administrator, then run SDCLT.exe and from there reconfigure the backup -- This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.
