I started receiving the following error message in vista home premium.
"An error occorred when checking the status of the last automatic backup."
"The specified service does not exist as an installed service. (0x80070424)"

I ran services and could not find the windows backup service running. I then checked
the system32 folder and all of the wb*.* files were not there.
:huh:

Did you use some kind of cleanup utility to clean garbage files ?
