access to the file or folder denied. (0x40014)

Thread needs solution

i get this error 99% of the time. that other 1%, out of the blue it will backup. I dont know what other process could be using these files as i run the backups in the middle of the night. Can anyone offer any suggestions? Is it because I am backing up a mapped drive?

I believe you have hit the nail on the head. Mapped drives do not always behave properly. When you set the destination for your backup set it for the IP address of your device. If your device does not have an assigned IP address you should assign one as well. This should eliminate your issue.
