    It likely means that the xml file is not there. I can't tell you why it wouldn't be. An xml file is basically a specification of what to back up, to where, and when. Try opening a command (or powershell, right click Start) prompt and type "dir F:\ *.xml" and hit Enter/Return and tell us if you get a "File Not Found" result.

    Is drive F connected? If not then that’s the reason for the error.
    Usually MR .xml files are stored within the documents folder on C so the clone one should be there too.

    Thanks for your message...I checked the documents folder and found the xml file for my previous backups but not for my current backup........is the xml backup file essential for a clone restore???

    There is no such thing as a "clone restore". An xml backup definition file is NOT essential for an image restore.
