I got the following error message:

"Couldn't copy the file "GLOBALROOT\Device\HarddiskVolumeShadowCopy18\System Volume Information\18{3808876b-c176-4e48-b7ae-04046e6cc752}": access denied"

What is the cause of this error ?

System Volume Information can NEVER be accessed. (and why would you want to)

The strange thing is: the harddisk in my desktop PC is divided in two partitions, "C:windows" and "D: data".

D: is used for data, while my Operating System is running on C:

My source drive for backup is the D-drive. Since my OS is running on the C-drive, I wouldn't expect the "system volume information" folder to be located on the D-drive. Still, I get that error message ?? Blink

Also, can I edit a setting so that Cobian Backup does not attempt to approach that folder ?

Thanks again,
Filip :-)

"system volume information" stores restore points. This would be on every disk that this service is enabled on.
