I have tried repairing with CHKDSK, but it had no effect on the problem, Also, running the same backup again generally works.

I'm using Retrospect 11.5 Desktop/Professional. Frequently I get numerous error -1101 (file/directory not found) messages during the initial copy phase of backups. These are almost always files that are always there, not ones deleted between the scan and the copy phases. Also, they are not the same files every time. Generally, rerunning the backup works, but that is a pain. Retrospect is supposed to be more automatic than that. It happens on the "server" PC and both of my 2 clients. It's not a new problem, but rather something that has been happening for a long time. I'm running Window 10 now, but it was happening long before that.

I don't have the problems mentioned by ProFromGrover. It happens that I recently did a CHKDSK /F /R on both of my partitions on the machine that does the backups. No problems were found. The profilelist in the registry is fine. I don't back up network shares, rather I back up the clients that own those volumes. I don't have a network disk appliance. It's interesting to look at the cost of one year's support as a percentage of the price of the product: Desktop: 109% Single Server (Disk-to-Disk) 5 Clients: 33% Dissimilar Hardware Restore Desktop: 61% Dissimilar Hardware Restore Disk-to-Disk: 47% Open File Backup Disk-to-Disk: 25% Perhaps if the price for support of the Desktop product were less skewed, more people might buy it.

I currently have Retrospect 11.5 Desktop (formerly Professional). I use it to back up three (currently) PCs to four backup sets, each on a 3 TB hard disk, using one of the backup sets each day. The network is a dedicated gigabit Ethernet switch. What's the value to me of upgrading to Version 12? The new features don't seem really applicable to me. There are quite a few bug fixes, but I don't see why I should have to pay for an upgrade just to get fixes. The main problem that I have is frequent occurrences of backups bombing with thousands of "-1101 File or Folder Not Found" errors: ... [*] stfiDoBackupOne: error -1101 (file/directory not found) on C:\Windows\WinSxS\x86_wwf-system.workflow.runtime_31bf3856ad364e35_10.0.14393.0_none_3670ad90fe5c2d0f\. [*] and 34,579 others [*] stfiWaitForBackupDone: operation terminated, error -1101 (file/directory not found) Trouble reading files, error -1101 (file/directory not found) 3/24/2017 6:27:38 AM: Trouble copying folders, error -1101 (file/directory not found) ddex=50,848 It occurs both on the "server" and the clients, with no obvious pattern. Usually rerunning the backup works, but that is a pain and makes Retrospect less than fully automated. I don't see a fix for this in the list of Version 12 fixes.

I've been trying to do an emergency client restore of the boot partition on a Windows 10 PC using Retrospect 11.5 Professional. It's restoring a backup of a pre-Anniversary Update version over an Anniversary Update version. I am getting hundreds of errors like these File "C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\Microsoft.XboxApp_15.18.14017.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe\XboxApp.UI\Resources\Images\URC\remote_forward_icon.png": can't link to "C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\Microsoft.XboxApp_19.21.23005.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe\XboxApp.UI\Resources\Images\URC\remote_forward_icon.png", error -1017 (insufficient permissions) File "C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\Microsoft.ZuneMusic_3.6.25021.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe\Assets\music_welcome_page2.jpg": can't link to "C:\Windows\InfusedApps\Packages\Microsoft.ZuneMusic_3.6.13251.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe\Images\FUE\fue_background4.jpg", error -1101 (file/directory not found) Then it ends with Trouble writing folder "\\?\Volume{8a931c6c-0000-0000-0000-500600000000}\\Users\DefaultAppPool\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5", error -1101 (file/directory not found) 10/10/2016 7:57:03 PM: Execution incomplete Completed: 136375 files, 34.6 GB Performance: 696.4 MB/minute Duration: 01:04:11 (00:13:26 idle/loading/preparing) Why? P.S. - Is there some way to do a search in these forums?
