I understand that SQL is doing backups. How can I stop SQL from doing backups? Using SQL 2008 R2.
I can locate the backups but there does not appear to be an option to delete or stop them.
Thank you
Ken

Hi Craig,
I looked at that and it does not offer a solution to deleting or stopping the SQL backups from running. (that I can see) Howeve it did put me onto the fact that it wasn't an SQL backup job but a Windows Backup that was running.
I've deleted that job and will wait for tonights results.
Thank you
Ken
