Hi !
I import backups from Cobian Backup, but network directories are not found, even if I confirm them.
For example, I created a shared directory on my home network : \\PC-SALON\Documents\Admin
I create a task to copy all documents from this directory, to D:\backup
Task options :
- General = no group, enabled, include subdirectories, use archive attributes, differential backup
- files = from \\PC-SALON\Documents\Admin to D:\backup
- schedule = manual
- advanced = mirror task, always create parent folder, clear archive attribute
- others = unchanged
If I connect network drive (for ex Z: on \\PC-SALON\Documents), it does not change anything, it takes same config (\\PC-SALON\Documents).
Error message :

2021-10-06 22:22:21 Calculating the number of files. This could take a while...

network directory not found
Re: network directory not found
You cannot access the network using a service with the System account. Run this task as an application or as a service under another account.

Re: network directory not found
Ok, thanks.
So it should be interesting to add an alert if user is system and a task uses a network directory ?

Re: network directory not found
In the installation when you select the user for the service, there is a warning about this problem.
