Validation

Thread needs solution

I'm a long-time user, i.e., going back to at least Acronis True Image version 6

I'm having a very weird problem with validation. Initially, when I set up a new backup, I have set up the validation to be performed once a week, i.e., on Saturday night. When I no longer wanted this to occur, no matter what combination of Validation | Options I used to remove the time, the program refuses to stop validating on Saturday night.

Anyone have any solution to this problem?

Thanks,

Darryl

Darryl, welcome to these public User Forums.

Download the Acronis Scheduler Manager tool (link below) and use this to clear out the hidden schedule for your weekly validation task.  The documentation with the tool gives directions on use.

In simplest terms:

Run the schedmgr.exe as Administrator - this opens a Command Prompt type black window.

Issue the command:  get list - this lists all the scheduled tasks on your computer.

Issue the command: task zap - this clears the list of scheduled tasks.

If you just use the above 2 commands, then you will need to reconfigure the schedules for any backup tasks shown in the ATI GUI.
