Again, that file name is being generated by HS during the backup operation. There are no files in that directory. I can copy and create files without issue in that directory.

Thanks ahead of time for any info
P.S. I run HS4 as a service.

Thanks for your patience. Yes I'm running HS as a service. I tried a number of combinations of HS as a service, as a regular app with a variety of users and permission types with the same result.
I then wrote a few lines of script and it finds and copies the new backup file to the network drive just fine. I would like to think there is an explanation for why I can't use a network location and I really can't come up with a satisfying one.

Like Dan-O, I'll keep my backup location question on this thread for compactness. I'm using HS4 Pro on WES7, which has been running reliably. I cannot get backups to work because although the webUI does accept and save the path of a mounted external drive (which has plenty of free GB), when I attempt a backup it fails for insufficient free space (as reported in the log). I'm pretty sure what's happening behind the scenes is the backup is attempting to write in the program install or %temp% directory then move file sets to the "backup directory". This fails on an embedded system because the OS volume (where Program Files\HS4 resides) is only 4GB, and after the OS, HS4 binaries and dotNET 4.x , there's not much space left (though plenty to operate with, as the device is fully dedicated to HS). Is there any way I can copy my rules and settings from within the file system if I want to migrate the deployment to another volume or perhaps a more spacious embedded device?
