Follow-up - I uninstalled and reinstalled, using &quot;Run As Administrator&quot; [even though I was logged in as an Administrator] and it now apparently is working. &nbsp;We will see if it continues.

I have a new installation, running ACT!2016 Pro on a Windows Server 2012 r2 box. &nbsp;The Database is on a local drive and I am attempting to run a daily backup of the database via the ACT Scheduler. &nbsp;On the Server, I have setup any number of Back up tasks, logged on as an Administrator in both Windows and ACT, to no avail. &nbsp; <br />
The software is installed onto the C: partition/drive and the database sits on the main partition/drive F:.<br />
Any thoughts or ideas?<br />

Thanks!<br />
