    Since I removed a failed data disk (Drive G:/) from my Win7 64 bit system, Backup finishes but gives an incomplete backup error of not finding Drive G. When I search Change Backup Settings, I can find no reference to the missing drive, although the desired C: and D: drives are listed. How can I prevent this error reporting, ie, remove this drive from the backup list of sources?

      Does it still show up in ‘Device Manager’ as ‘enabled’? If so try disabling it – that might prevent it showing in the Backup program.

        Hi Poltor –
        No, it does not show up in Device Mgr, thanks anyway

      How about in Disk Manager? Does it show up there? (Type Disk Management in search box and select Create and Format hard disk partitions)

      Also, perhaps you have to change an option in your Backup app.
