The Thumbs.db files error may be caused by the system caching those preview files, I guess. I use to exclude those files from by backups.

thanks for the reply...

I never use to get this error with the previous version of cobian, however. Could this be because you are now compressing differently (into a zip not the old .enz (i think it was) type files)?

BTW - great product

The enz files on the old versions where zip or 7zip files (depending of the selected method) with another extension.
