    Windows 7 System Backup keeps saying files are skipped with two different errors


    For some reason with my custom built PC, I keep getting an error saying that my pictures and music folders are at a WAIT_STATUS_2/WAIT_STATUS_3.


    Here is the log here:


    Backup encountered a problem while backing up file D:\Pictures\Camera Roll. ErrorWindows 7 System Backup keeps saying files are skipped with two different errors :(STATUS_WAIT_3 (0x80070003))
    Backup encountered a problem while backing up file D:\Music. ErrorWindows 7 System Backup keeps saying files are skipped with two different errors :(STATUS_WAIT_2 (0x80070002))
    Backup encountered a problem while backing up file D:\Pictures\Saved Pictures. ErrorWindows 7 System Backup keeps saying files are skipped with two different errors :(STATUS_WAIT_3 (0x80070003))

    I've tried to scan the computer for corruption/errors but the computer tells me that no corruption is detected. Also, one thing I notice is that these folders that the program alerts me about are NOT in root dictionary of my Data Disk (DWindows 7 System Backup keeps saying files are skipped with two different errors :) drive anymore, they are within a user folder (as similar to that in the User folder in my drive) on that same drive, like this: D:\novad\Pictures. I'm not sure how to make these errors go away.

    :)

  3. Windows Backup with system image completed but with skipped files

    Hi Craig,

    The possible cause why Windows Backup skipped some files might be due to mismatched system files or misconfigured Windows settings. Check the reply of Vinod N on this thread for
    the possible solution. The steps provided is also applicable to Windows 10 devices.

    Keep us updated about the result.

    Windows 7 System Backup keeps saying files are skipped with two different errors

    Backup (Win7 version) says can't find windows.old


    I'm using the Win7 Backup and Restore on my Win 10 system. Sometime after he big update happened I decided to get rid of the C:\Windows.old\ folder and used Disk Cleanup to do it. It said it did but some parts of the folder remained. IIRC I manually deleted the left over parts. So now there is no Windows.old folder.

    However, subsequent backups have reported that some files were skipped and lists C:\Windows.old\ as the skipped file.
    I have used system Error Checking facility to check the C disk and it says everything is fine. And Disk Cleanup does not list any previous versions of Windows to clean.

    I believe the backups are OK but I don't like the backup saying it didn't complete successfully.

    Suggesting on how to make this error go away?
