Command Line to launch backup

Post by fledorze »

I have just installed and configured last version of Cobian Reflector.
You did a fantastic job !!!

According to https://cobiansoft.com/crHelp/command_line.html
Cobian.Reflector.Application.exe "-list:C:\Program Files\List.lst" -bu -nogui should execute all backup tasks immediately
I trying to do it through a SSH/Powershell and nothing seems to happen, nothing more in log file.
Tasks are working fine when executed by scheduling (every 3 hours).
What am I doing wrong ?

Hmm... I can't find any obvious problem with this command line.

I connected on Windows hosts through RDP.
The same command opens a windows saying : The program is already running (perhaps as a service)
Which is right : I installed the tool as a service.
Does it mean that force a task to run is not possible when Cobian Reflector is a service ?

A service is always running and the command line can't be used with it.
