I have started using cobian backup. Here is the log from my last backup. It should have backed up 20GB but only did 5GB.

In Cobain Backup I have found on occasion that I need to recreate the backup options in order for it to function correctly. Try adding these folders manually instead of a top tier folder if the above fails.



Is this an automated or manual backup that kicks off?
Do you have folder permissions that may limit these files from being copied? To find out right click the folder and click properties. Then select security. Check that the current user has read/write permissions for the specified folder.
