I have a computer when I set the AutoArchive to run it
will copy the emails to the Archive folder but will not
remove them from the Inbox. I have gone into the
Autoarchive properties and set the archive to move old
emails to the archive folder. It is set to archive
emails older than three months. Does anybody know what
else to look for.

The date of reception of a message is not the date Autoarchive uses. It
uses the modified date of a message. If you move an old message, for
example, from one folder to another, that message's modified dat is new and
so it won't be archived. Perhaps that's the issue in your case.
