Hi,

I have a situation where Microsoft Backup will not access a network drive
yet I'm able to browse what is on the drive via Explorer. Backup will access
other drives on the same computer via the network. Any ideas how to solve
this issue? Thanks in advance
 
try mapping a drive letter to the network share, then launch msbackup.
could be a rights issue, whereby msbackup isn't getting sufficient rights to
the remote folder: try setting the shared folder to allow everyone, all
rights as a test.
also, try using a different name for the share, or delete the share, then
recreate it, as there may be some underlying error or glitch that msbackup
can't handle...
