I should mention that the backup job may have been created with SSR 2013 and Windows 8 prior to installing SSR 2013 R2 after upgrading to Windows 10. Also the backup says Backup my Computer. As you can see I have a second disk D in my system. I do exclude it from the computer backup job. I wonder if that has some effect. I seldom use the D: drive and can live with it's loss.
I believe a major purpose for having backups is so that if the hard drive or SSD now crashes I can return to the exact same state the system was in before the crash without having to jump through hoops. I may be doing something wrong but it is certainly not working for me.
I have another quesiton. When I try to run the backup job now I get the message that the drive seems to be failing and SSR refuses to do an incremental backup. Is the failure warning a flag that may have been set in error or is it a test performed at the start of any backup job?
