Default The backup did not complete successfully

Hi, when using the "System Tools" backup utility I received this message:

"The backup did not complete successfully. An error occurred. The
following information might help you resolved the error: The system
cannot find the file specified. (0x80070002)"

I've contacted Dell Support about this and all I was offered was to do a restore
which I tried and got the very same error on all previous restore point. Upon
Google searching "Error (0x80070002) it told me that it is a problem in preventing
windows from accurately checking the license for this computer". I'm too new
at computing and too old to try to comprehend all this. Can you help?

I have a Dell XPS 420 running on Vista Home Premium (32 bit) with 4GB of ram.
I should also add that I was trying to back up to the same external 1TB HD
which still have 721 GB of free space left. I also ran defrag, ran Window defender
and Trend Micro PC_Cillin and my drive C and on my large external drive. No
error or virus were found.
