OK thanks Mike :)

I will see what Macrium say before I uninstalled ☺

I am going to run a backup now and see what happens suppose could be a one off. ..

As also mentioned do you need to create a new rescue USB after each Macrium software update?

I did only create it on Friday☺

That's the thing... I have looked in there and default and it is set not to do it... very strange...

Like Mike said, uninstall/reinstall may be your only recourse. Not having that issue, and haven't seen it posted by anyone else. The lastest was a Patch update, not an install over the existing. Sometimes that doesn't go quite right. Get a fresh copy of the Macrium Reflect from their site, uninstall the one you have, and start over with a clean Macrium Install. If it still comes back, we'll look at other things. Macrium Reflect Free | Macrium Software

Yes at least so far, after every update, Macrium has also updated our USB thumb drive too.

Well, just tried to manually run a incremental backup and it stick on "loading index file" for about 10 mins... so I uninstalled just the Macrium software but left all options in place...

I have just reinstalled and ran the incremental back up, did it in about 6 mins which is quicker than the last couple, and no message...

So I will see what it does when it automatically runs the differential back up tonight... So far so good :)

Hope so... I installed on Friday, did the full back up in about an hour and the incremental on Friday, Saturday and Sunday took about 15-16 mins, this one just took 6 mins! so a lot quicker... and no message Lol... maybe the update, as you said did not quite go as it should :)

So you would now recommend I wipe my USB recovery and do a new one?

Thanks for the advice...

You could do that, would not hurt. Then after making your new one, test it out to make sure everything works ok for you.

Thank you... May do that later, the current one is only a couple of days old and I did test that to make sure it boots OK which it does... :)

"Fingers crossed" it is fixed now Lol

Joys of computers and software... Lol... ask the airports with there issues over the weekend
