* Small Backup

[Gary Carson]

When attempting a Small Backup get the following error "Error reading file. Cannot perform backup"

I could backup the other two methods - Medium and Full without errors.

Validated without errors and still got the same error message.

Used default file name for saving the Small Backup.

Had made numerous Small Backups previously without incident.

What must I do to in order to perform Small Backup.

Are you using Windows? Since all a small backup does is copy/zip FH's gedcom, are you able to copy it with Windows explorer instead of FH? If not, could be something locking it, but then the other options shouldn't work. Strange.Are you using Windows? Sounds like a catchall, but have you tried rebooting and retrying? Yesterday, I had a file I could not rename in explorer, indicating something was using it. Task mgr didn't show anything, but after a reboot, all worked.

Rebooting solved the problem.
