Default How to make full drive C: backup using auto schedule with Ulti

I just checked my master document on this--looks like Word changed the
hyphens to endashes. Check your syntax again :-)

Also tried the following syntax since the drive I want to backup to is a
USB
drive labeled G: but with same error message.

Copy & past then changed [start backup – allcritical –backuptarget:
-quiet] to [start backup – allcritica –backuptarget:G: -quiet]

Default How to make full drive C: backup using auto schedule with Ulti

I went back and tried [start backup -allcritical -backuptarget:G: -quiet]
changing all dashes to hyphens (first 2 were wrong) (it's key between 0 and
=?) and removed the extra space in -allcritical. I also tried quite instead
of quiet (is it supposed to be quiet?) but all the same. Can't find wbadmin
in Help and get [0 results for wbadmin] in Help. Also how else would you do
a full backup besides another USB or extra HD?

Call me all confused now.

I'm guessing this is due to the fact that you have to do your backup to
another disk or volume than the one you are backing up.

Try starting an elevated command prompt (run as Adminstrator) to play around
with wbadmin. Wbadmin has built-in help, so if you type "wbadmin" you'll get
a list of syntax you can use.

I just tried using the syntax (minus quotes): "start
backup -allcritical -backuptarget:V: -quiet" and this started to work but
then stopped because my V is a critical volume (I was just guessing a volume
to use). Could this be the error you're hitting? When I substitute N, it
works. My backup is running right now. The -quiet parameter is necessary
because otherwise you are prompted to confirm your backup.
