backup destination suddenly not found
I created backups in Acronis True Image 2020 and successfully performed first backup on all. Overnight, when the next backups were scheduled, I got errors that destination for backups could not be found. I retried manually and got same response. I opened File Explorer in Windows 10 Pro and the desitination drive is easily accessible. It is a USB connected drive. I also opened command prompt and easily accessed the drive. I then deleted two of the three backups I created that failed (the third was on weekly schedule and was 636 GB) with the 'delete completely' option and the deletions were successful AND Acronis deleted backup files on the destination drive. I also performed a recovery of the 636 GB file and folder backup to a different folder (Steam game library relocation) and Acronis had no problems finding that backup file and recovering its contents to a different drive and folder. This gets even more ridiculous. I create a backup, and using Acronis interface create a folder for the backup files on the destination drive it supposedly cannot access. The backup fails with the error message "The backup failed. Ensure that destination 'q:\test' is accessible". OK, so, how could it create the folder on the drive it could supposedly not access for backing up a disk, yet tell me the drive could not be accessed and fail the job? The folder was on the drive, but no backup.
What on earth is keeping me from making a fresh backup using the same destination that Acronis could access to delete backup files or perform a recovery? This is beyond frustrating.
