I'm trying to lunch ntbackup on shutdown but the backup file (.bkf) is only 1.1 GB instead of 2.2 GB. When i try to restore using this file ntbackup tells me that it is corrupted. If i run the same command as bat file it works (the command is: ntbackup backup C:\ systemstate /m normal /f "X:\Backup_20-12-2010.bkf" /j "Bckp_Data-and-System" /L:s ). The log file tells me that everything is ok. What can i do?
The solution is to set in gpedit.msc at Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\System\Scripts the key Maximum wait time for Group Policy scripts to 0. The default time is 600 seconds (10 minutes).

I'm with this problem when I try to save to redis. Introducing the message below.
MISCONF Redis is configured to save RDB snapshots, but it's currently unable to persist to disk. Commands that may modify the data set are disabled, because this instance is configured to report errors during writes if RDB snapshotting fails (stop-writes-on-bgsave-error option). Please check the Red
The redis log file displays this:
Background saving started by pid 73
Write error saving DB on disk: Function not implemented
Has anyone ever experienced this?
I found the answer. You need to wsl 2 To find out the version run below command in PowerShell
wsl -l -v
If it is version 1, run the command below and open ubuntu again
wsl --set-version 2
More information: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/install
Due to increasing space consumption of WSL I was forced to move my WSL distros to another disk.
Ubuntu
docker-desktop
docker-desktop-data
I used these commands.
wsl --shutdown
wsl --export (on all three of those distros)
wsl --import (already on another disk)
Now my environment is running fine but the ext4.vhdx in AppData\Local\Docker\wsl\data is still present and I can't remove it due to it still being used.
When I look at process hadnles
Its still being used by system which is not telling much.
If I run WSL --shutdown all virtual disks present on disk E: lose their handles and the one on disk C: is still being used.
Would you know how to find out what part of WSL or if it even is WSL is using?
Since shutting down WSL does not remove that handle it might be used by something else.
Its not docker-for-desktop that one uses different disk.
Thanks for your suggestions.
Docker Desktop for Windows, which uses WSL2, stores all image and container files in a separate virtual volume (vhdx). This virtual hard disk file can automatically grow when it needs more space (to a certain limit). Unfortunately, if you reclaim some space, i.e. by removing unused images, vhdx doesn't shrink automatically. Luckily, you can reduce its size manually by calling this command in PowerShell (as Administrator):
Optimize-VHD -Path $Env:LOCALAPPDATA\Docker\wsl\data\ext4.vhdx -Mode Full
If the above command fails with
The system failed to compact 'C:\Users\Maxx\AppData\Local\Docker\wsl\data\ext4.vhdx':
The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process. (0x80070020).
exit form Docker Desktop or stop services and tasks using that file:
net stop com.docker.service
taskkill /IM "docker.exe" /F
taskkill /IM "Docker Desktop.exe" /F
wsl --shutdown
I reclaimed 15Gb of 40Gb.
Origin of the solution.
You can just clean data from interface. Troubleshooting -> Clean/Purge data
Upgrading from WSL1 to WSL2 made it a bit messy, but resetting docker-desktop to its default setting and then purging data from WSL (using docker-desktop troublesshot) cleared it for me.
I have this commen issue with photoshop. Where it doesn't delete the temp files it creates after a shutdown of program.
I have used alot of time to find a script that would delete all files with starting name of Photoshop* in the temp, which is older than 2 days. So i dont delete files, if i get a unexpected shutdown or crash.
I tried this, after a few hours of search - but it doenst work
ForFiles /p "C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\Temp\Photo*" /s /d -2 /c "cmd /c del #file"
This works, perfectly but it deletes all files without taking into consideration how old the files are.
C:\
del "C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\Temp\Photoshop*."
How can i get the above script, which runs on every startup with system rights.
To only delete all files starting with photoshop* and are older than 2 days :)
I need this script to work on Windows10 and Windows7
Every input is appreciated.
tl;dr
robocopy has security problems copying from 'nas to nas'
The system detected a possible attempt to compromise security. Please
ensure that you can contact the server that authenticated you.
Summary
I'm running into "windows permission problems" when making backups using using the following:
powershell
robocopy
Windows 2008R2
Windows task scheduler
Task Scheduler output
Taskscheduler runs under user domain account "OPS\backupuser"
The script succeeds when it copies "from local drive" "to the backup nas"
However it fails when the script copies "from another nas" "to the backup nas"
In pictures...
Success: local drive --copy-to--> backup NAS
Fails: another NAS --copy-to--> backup NAS
Output
Robocopy fails with exit code 16.
Here is detailed output:

Other points
1) Because I the environment is 'locked down', I could not run this from the command line, either as :
my own account
my own account with elevated command prompt
OPS\backupuser
2) I tried adding '/NODCOPY' , but robocopy failed; apparently we don't have the hotfix for this option.
Thanks in advance!
NAS drives are not Windows drives. You have to map to them uniquely and with certain admin privileges to make them "see" you're trying to copy stuff into them.
First map a drive to the NAS system using NET USE
Next copy the file(s) using ROBOCOPY thus...
robocopy <source path> <nas path> <file(s)> /s /j /r:2 /w:5 /log+:robocopy.log
Place it all inside a CMD file and run it from a Task Scheduler on your Windows server.

You forgot:
/FFT #":: assume FAT File Times (2-second granularity)" -ensures the copy ignores OS file system while copying in ROBOCOPY
/Z #":: Includes LARGE file copy restart" - restarts large file copying where the copy left off in the file, instead of starting over again. Like in a 500 GB file it restarts at the byte the copy stopped at, in case you need to schedule offline copying and don't want large files to prevent the copy progression (will ONLY start over if the file date changed!)
/xo #"exclude older files" -copies all new files - something useful to retry copies in Scheduled task Job of Robocopy...
All these are useful in NAS copying... as they tend to have issues resolved by these switches in ROBOCOPY.
There is some processes running on my pc,I want to take automatically screenshot of my desktop in every 10 min. Is any way to do this?
This can be done without external tools but you'll need .net frame work (installed by default from vista and above) and screenCapture.bat
#echo off
setlocal
set counter=1
:repeat
ping localhost -n 1 -w 600000
call screenCapture screen%counter%.jpg jpg
set /a counter=counter+1
goto :repeat
follow the steps
Download Nircmd.exe and paste into c:/Windows/System32
Then make a bat file and paste the below script
# echo off
Nircmd.exe savescreenshot "C:\Users\Kishore\Desktop\Screenshot.jpg"
using window schedular, you can schedule this bat file in every 10 min. In every 10 min you will get the screenshot saved in your given location folder.
