Nonstop backup stops!
I am using ATIH 2012 build 6163 on a Windows 7 Professional x64, and cannot get the nonstop backup to keep running. After starting it, it runs for a few minutes and then the systray icon simply says it has stopped. No explanation in the gui.
I am using the secure zone for backup destination, and after browsing the forums I have also tried reducing the size of the ASZ to something like 95 GB, but without improvement. I have only selected a few of the most important top-level directories (dedicated software development directories, users-folder, etc.) to include in the nonstop backup, but still the problem persists.
When looking in the afcdpsrv.log file I find something like several thousands of lines like these (all identical):

As far as I can see, the logfile does not mention what file it is having problems reading. How useful is that?
After a long run of lines like the above, it finally boils down to this:

14:10:14: Nonstop backup has been created successfully.
And then the logfile stops, as well as the nonstop-backup itself.
Any idea how to get this working other than randomly deselecting directories included in the nonstop backup and trying until it keeps running? It would take ages, and what is the use of a nonstop backup if some mysterious files cannot be included in the backup (you can bet that those files are probably the ones you would need to restore). I am taking regular image backups also, but would like the fine grained nonstop backup when doing software development.

Sad but true ! I got so many problems with this product that is unbelievable: it took 3 weeks to activate the product and make it work; after just few days another problem: Failed to deploy task. scheduling service is off.
I try to contact the live support and the website tells me that the online support is expired and I have to pay if I want it!
I have only used it one week !
Terrible customer support !
Do not waste your time with this product !

I have the same problem, NonStop 2012 (6163) just stops. I am backing up to a home NAS connected as "\\nas name\nas private directories\myname\AcronisBackups" over 100baseT ethernet...
any attempt to restart it causes it to run for a couple minutes, then goes back to stop. the backup version increment doesn't change. there's no errors in the log.
gads, saved logs are in XML ? meh. the log shows ...
* operation nonstop backup started
* updating backup database: setting verification requirement for database access.
* creating incremental backup archive
.....
* operation has succeeded
if I click the 'recover' button, it just sits there with a blank popup with a grey spinner.
