I hope there is no misunderstanding.
I have already made the settings you mentioned.
But the error still occurs.

Hello Cobian,

I use Cobian Reflector in the current version under Windows 11 as a service of the Local System.
I have defined various backup tasks that run properly until the PC is put to hibernation.
After switching on again, CR is started, the service also runs, but missed backups are not made up.
To do this, I must first stop and restart the CR main service.

Is there a solution for this?

Thank you, Otrag

1- At least one previous backup must exist for the given task
2- The task must be of type Daily, Weekly or Monthly
3- The missed backups will start randomly within an hour.

Agree with previous posts, missed backups are not run under certain conditions.

Missed backups are not run if the computer is at sleep at the scheduled time and then woke up.

Missed backups are run if I restart the service manually.
Missed backups are run if the computer is shutdown over the scheduled time and then started.

I have used Cobian Backup 11 Gravity for many years and it works as expected, thank you for a very good program.
Unfortunately the new Reflector doesn't work as well regarding missed backups so there must be a difference in how they are handled.

My computer is a Win 10 21H2.

Regards,
Thomas

Missed backups will be checked in that case as well, but it can take about one hour i the worst case.

Yes, I have seen the earlier posts.
But now it's two days and still no Reflector backup...

Backup 11 Gravity has run the missed backups flawlessly on the same machine.
