    Robocopy backup to NAS does not work : "Access is denied"


    I'm trying to backup a directory on my laptop to my NAS with a script :
    robocopy D:\Videos "Z:\Shared Videos" /MIR /XJ

    When I run the script, I get the error message "Access is denied." However, in the File Explorer I can drag-and-drop files to the NAS. Also with iPhone and iPad no problem to access the files on the NAS.

    How can I solve this ?

    Have you tried running as administrator?
