After using Windows 7 backup, Windows said: "the last backup failed."

I use Windows 7 Pro backup each week to a separate hard drive. I needed to use the backup today. After using action Center says now that my last backup failed. It is still listed in the backup and it worked, then why is it listed as failed now?

Event ID 4 means the backup completed successfully

Have you compared the last backup to backup other files?

You can try to perform a new backup to make sure that it works correctly.

Antivirus software may have hindered during the backup process and triggered the message "failure of the last backup.  Turn it off when you run another backup.

Good luck!

  • "the password is incorrect" after using Windows 7 Easy Transfer

    The problem is that the 'password is incorrect' after using Windows 7 Easy Transfer.

    I've already studied this problem on the Internet and in online forums.  A lot of people seems to have the same question/problem/question.  Noone has a solution.  Several members of the staff of Microsoft technical support provided responses which do not solve the problem, explain what is happening, or were intended to solve the problem of evil.  For example, many responses were that political Microsoft does not provide assistance when retrieving passwords.  OK, but this isn't what is asked for.  There is a problem and it would be good if someone has recognized that there is a problem and - at least - it is being researched if there is not already a solution.  Anyway, as many have already asked, here is my point of view trying to find a solution to this problem:

    Used Windows 7 Easy Transfer to move user accounts and files between an old 32 bit Vista PC to a new PC 64 bit Windows 7. The transfer was made on a network without using an easy transfer cable. There is no errors during the transfer and user accounts on PC Windows 7 seem to be transferred correctly. Once connected to a user account on the new PC, opens a window titled 'Migration of protected content'. Text indicates that the protected content is transferred and request a password to be entered in a password field. I entered the PC Vista user account password, but the password was not accepted, and this error message is printed "the password is incorrect". All the transferred accounts had exactly the same problem, even if the original Vista PC account password has been entered correctly.

    Studied this problem on the Internet and a suggestion to solve the problem is that the password requested is the STEM of simple transfer is used to start the transfer. I have re-transferred from user accounts and entered to the STEM of easy transfer when windows 'Protected content Migration' asked a password. Always to receive the same error message "password is incorrect" on all user accounts.

    You will need to determine what password is requested. In my view, it should be the original account on the old computer password, but perhaps the easy transfer ROD. If it is not what should it be? If it's neither of the two, which? If it's the original on the old computer account password or easy transfer ROD, why aren't these being accepted because I tried them both. Once the correct password is available, is it possible to open the window of 'Protected content Migration' to enter the password without having to use Easy Transfer to transfer the accounts?

    Finally, what is the protected content that is transferred? How will I know what it is?  It doesn't seem to be something missing in the accounts of user who is easily visible by me. If the protected content is not necessary then not being is not able to access may not be a problem. Because I don't know what content is protected, I have no way to assess if not available is important.

    Pegasus,

    What password? The Windows logon password? Yes

    Have you tried to log on as an administrator? Yes

    Or using your database password key USB key file? No, but why?  I know what are all passwords logon and they seized everything correctly.  Again, the question that must be answered - by someone who knows - what password is asked?  Why are all the suggestions "try this or try that."  Nobody seems to be able to tell which password is requested or why.  What is the protected content that is transferred.  I don't think that there is nothing like DRM content on the original system.  Why this request appears?  Anyone know?

    Hi AirbnDoc,

    Disable all security software before installing the updates.

    Once installed, updates allow security software.

  • I have a black screen, but can use windows on the bottom bar.

    I have a HP desktop computer and you are using Windows Vista Home Premium.  The Office has been black for about a month now.  Again, I have the windows at the bottom bar and am able to navigate in all my programs through the start icon.  The computer seems to work very well - and analyses have not found something unusual.  That's happened?  How can I recover my office?  I can't start my computer Safe Mode (by pressing f8) and I find not "Accessories" in my list of programs, but I could find 'system restore', so I chose a point of restoration about 4 weeks ago, but he has failed.  Can you help me!
    Thank you!

    I thought that the files have completely disappeared.  shortcuts were definitely missing.  When I went to "my documents" on the start menu, I could not find personal files at all.  It is computer of my mother and my brother came the next day and was able to fix it.  He said that he has restored the computer using "System Restore" and used a date prior to that I took.  He was able to restore the computer and found all the files.  I guess they were just hidden.

    So I guess that the problem has been resolved!  Thank you for your answer!

  • I use windows 7, the program file (x 86) always on the first day?

    When I used Windows 7, I don't know if I have the program file (x 86) in my system. Is it still there from the first day? Also, I downloaded a program called 360safe.wizard and I tried to uninstall several times, but I could not, he told me that I need an administrative authority, I don't know what to say since I am the owner of my own computer, isn't it quite authoritarian to control my own program files?, what authority do I need?

    Hi, TheClaxons,

    You can restore the system to a date and time before the current updates.  See if that solves the problem; However, you take a big risk, access to the internet without anti-virus software.
