Are you running HS3 as an admin user?
I do see mention of UNC paths causing issues when not an admin user
Can you try this registry setting
You need to enable what MS calls "linked connections": HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion \Policies\System\EnableLinkedConnections (REG_DWORD) = 0x1
Could it be an access issue - this sounds like a permission issue
Do you have UAC turned on - if so try turning it off
I am going to write my own directory check tonight and will post a new build for you to try
In the meantime, if you could try that registry entry and see what happens
You can always delete the entry if it makes no difference
Mine is set to 1 so I am curious if that is the issue
FYI: Both my HS3 server and the PC I have my daily backups on, got the Windows 10 "1803" update within the last few weeks----are you testing on this version?
Bob,
I may have mislead you earlier when you asked me to create a C:\Temp directory. I think I created a C:\Temp on the remote machine and put "\\BobsOfficePC\Temp" as the entry on your Options page. That did/does fail.
I just tried creating a Temp directory on the HS Server machine then inputting "C:\Temp" on your Options page and that does work! So my problem seems related only to a directory on a remote networked machine--but you probably already figured that.
I will try the registry change and get back to you.
