Original title: error on backup windows 7 files ignored
Have used the backup of windows 7 with no problems for several years.
Get this error now: "the backup completed, but some files were skipped - 0x8100002F"
Log shows:
Backup has encountered a problem during backup of the C:\Users\HOME\Pictures\2013-08-17 file. Error: (the system cannot find the specified file. (0 x 80070002))
Backup has encountered a problem during backup of the C:\Users\HOME\Pictures\2013-08-17-dup file. error: (the system cannot find the specified file. (0 x 80070002))Check my hard drive of the PC with windows Explorer & files above do not exist.
Tried to change my backup settings to not have the folder of images on the home account backed up & still get the error. Store all of my photos on another account (admin account) so no need to save photos on the House.
Please help to get rid of this annoying error.
HelloThis problem occurs if Windows backup ignores certain files when Windows Backup cannot find them. When you perform the backup there backup Documents, photos, music and videos through user libraries. So if Windows detects any changes in the path of the folder then the libraries do not recognize their unless you access the corresponding library via Windows Explorer.
Please, try the steps in the Microsoft KB article and check if it helps.

I have been using the following games; Taipei (Majongg tiles), Tetris, Golf (cards) and cruel (maps), which came with MS Entertainment Pack for Windows (1990) and who has worked with every version of MS Windows since 95 Windodws. I can use them with Windows Vista but I can't use them on Windows 7, I really enjoy these games and like to use them in Windows 7 and 8.
"All Microsoft Entertainment Pack games work on Windows XP, Vista, Windows 7 and Windows 8, but this only applies to 32-bit versions. The NTVDM allows 16-bit applications run in 32-bit versions of Windows. In the 64-bit versions of these operating systems are 32-bit applications be run in a compatibility layer in the kernel and layer 16 bit must be rewraped, this is why Microsoft has removed the feature. "(from Wikipedia)
It's true. I tested the games ("Best of Windows Entertainment Pack", similar to the MEP even older) on 32-bit Windows 7, no problem. On Windows 7, 64 bit, they don't work (except if try you heavy workaround solutions like running Windows 3.1 on an emulator of BACK, then using this virtual operating system to run games).

Try to upgrade manually:

- How to: upgrade previous versions of Windows using the file ISO for Windows 10
then
- Turn off (preferably uninstall) your Antivirus utility before you perform the upgrade.
- Reboot several times, and then try again.
- Disable the general USB peripherals (for example - smart card reader).
- If you are using a SCSI drive, make sure you have the drivers available for your storage on a thumdrive device and it is connected. During the installation of Windows 10, click on the advanced custom Option and use the command load driver to load the driver for the SCSI drive. If this does not work and the installer still fails, consider switching to an IDE based hard drive.
- Perform a clean boot, restart, and then try again.
- If you upgrade to the. ISO file, disconnect from the Internet during the installation, if you are connected in LAN (Ethernet) or wireless, disable both, then try to install.
- If you are updated through Windows Update, when download reaches 100% disconnect from the LAN (Ethernet) Internet or Wi - Fi, then proceed with the installation.
- If this does not work, try using the. ISO file to upgrade if possible.
- If you are connected to a domain, go to a local account.
- If you have an external equipment, attached to the machine, unplug them (example, game controllers, USB sticks, external hard drive, printers, peripherals not essential).

New hard drive try to install Windows vista, but it keep suspended after 60% collapsed I tried a few time every time I had to wait for 5 hours, but the same thing happen again and again can help you pleaaaaaaaaaaaaase
Monastir,
What happens when it stops it is have a Sata driver. It is on the drivers cd you received with your computer. You can also start the computer and press F2 to enter the bios. From there down to Configuration system - SATA Operation and change this to ATA. It is located to AHCI. Save the changes and restart the installation. Once you have loaded Windows and drivers installed, you will need to go back to AHCI.

"Backup completed, but some files were ignored.
Hello, when I backup Windows, it nearly finishes him off then the progress bar turns red and he says "backup completed, but some files were skipped" so when I discovered the ignored files it displays
Backup has encountered a problem during backup of the C:\Users\Mcx1-SLAYER2\Contacts file. Error: (the system cannot find the specified file. (0 x 80070002))
Backup has encountered a problem during backup of the C:\Users\Mcx1-SLAYER2\Searches file. Error: (the system cannot find the specified file. (0 x 80070002))
Can you please help and tell me how to solve this problem, so I can run a backup successfully?A full system restore will fix this problem?
Here are a few suggestions:
(a) reboot safe mode, and then perform the backup.
(b) ignore the warnings. Files seem to belong to a game, that's why their loss would be of little consequence.
