Scheduling Backups.

[Gordie]

Hi All,

I have been trying to schedule backups to run daily but I run into a problem
when it asks for username and password as I don't remember having set this
up. I am set up as the administrator. ...Win XP home version SP2. Also, how
do I delete previous schedules? I tried to set one up before but it will not
run as desired.
Any help appreciated.

If you do not remember your own password then you are
skating on thin ice. Use this opportunity to reset your
password now ***and record it in a safe place***!

Launch the Control Panel / Scheduled Tasks to manage your
existing tasks.

Thanks for responding...went control panel/scheduled tasks etc and
scheduling was okay up until I tried to set account info with password. Then
I get the "access denied" message and a warning that the backup may not run
because of this discrepancy. Is there any way I can confidently reset the
account info?

TIA.

As I said before: You must change your password now so
that you know what it is, and record it in a safe place.
