Backup stops when a file is locked

Thread needs solution

How can I achieve that Acronis doesn't break a backup when I a file is locked? I want to backup a Folder for example with Excel-Sheets and Excel writes ~$....xlsx files. Acronis stops the backup when there is such a file and nothing will be backuped. I have exluded ~$*.* files, but the backup stops with an error.

Hello Dennis,

thank you for your posting and welcome to our forum!

The good option in your case is "silent mode". If you activate it locked files will be skipped and program won't wait for user interaction.

Thank you.
