Scheduled Backup Not Starting Automatically

Thread needs solution

I'm using Acronis True Image 2015, Build 6525.

I have a weekly backup scheduled to run week;y of Fridays at 9:00 PM. This backups to an external drive (I have 2 Iomega eGo drives that I alternate each week). For some reason the backup will not start automatically. I have to start it manually (usually the next morning). It runs fine once started.

I have another daily scheduled backup that runs daily on Monday through Thursday. This backups to an external Western Digital Passport drive. This drive doesn't change and is always plugged in. This backup has been starting automatically and running without any problems.

Any ideas on why the weekly backup won't start automatically?

Each target disk needs its own backup task. If only one task used, the task will only work with the task that was attached at time of task creation.
