Acronis Cloud Trial: "The last backup has failed. Failed to lock the file"

Thread needs solution

Hi,

Ref:  Acronis True Image 2017.  What does this error mean and how do I fix it?  I've tried to start a an 'Instant chat' and to 'Submit a ticket' but get no response using Firefox Browser.  Therefore I am asking the community.  If anyone from Acronis feels like providing support for a 3 week old product, please feel free to weigh in.

Regards,

This error:  The last backup failed.  Failed to lock the file.  happens when I try to backup to the Acronis Cloud.

Neil, welcome to these user forums.

Unfortunately, we have no access to the Cloud servers or other systems involved to be able to investigate why your backup has failed.

I would recommend downloading / using the MVP Log Viewer and see if that can provide any more meaningful messages about your backup failure from the log files.

Have you tried restarting the same backup task?

Please do try to get through to Acronis Support and start a Live Chat session if you have the time / patience to do so.
