Hi,
I looked at 2016 Windows services and processes, so does the same apply to it.
Only Scheduler 2 service needed?
Also when backing up and I get the dreaded 'Failed to Read data from disk'
what happens if I press Ignore?
Does it bypass or correct the sector area or is the error transferred into the backup?
I will use ChkDsk once I let it complete, if it does.
Thanks
oz

David, yes regarding background services, only the Scheduler 2 service is essential.
If you are getting any disk related errors, i.e. failed to read data, then the data is not included in the backup file and there are no corrective actions performed by Acronis! Clicking on Ignore does exactly that.
