Back-up allegedly fails

Thread needs solution

I back up once a month and set to validate after finishing. No errors shown. When I reopen next month the previous month's backup is shown as failed. To check I re-validate when no errors are shown and a green tick is shown against the backup. This happens every month.

David, sorry but not enough information to try to understand why your backup is showing as failed?

Please can you confirm your ATI version & build as shown in the GUI on the Account page.
For ATI 2018 the latest / final build is # 15470.

Next, what type of backup are you running here, is this for Disks & Partitions or for Files & Folders, and which Backup Scheme are you using here?  Full backups, Incremental or Differential backups?

Where are you backing up to for the destination, is this an external USB drive, network drive etc?
If USB which standard is used, i.e. USB 2.0 or 3.0, and where connected, i.e. directly to a port on your computer motherboard / back panel or via a hub or dock etc?

I would recommend downloading a copy of the MVP Log Viewer tool (link below) and using this to check the logs after your backup task has run and performed a validation.

Final question, is anything changing on your computer in between the time when the backup completes successfully and the time when it shows as failed in the ATI GUI, i.e. no drive swapping is taking place to rotate backup drives?
