The Bat uses its own scheduler, it is separate from the one in Windows. Glad you managed to solve it though!

Thanks Daniel,  I rebooted my system again and disconnected internet and was able to start TB without the backups starting immediately. I deleted the scheduled tasks normally via tools/backup and now things are back to normal.
I also deleted all the backup files tbk and tbn (?) , basically did not want to rely on any of what happened yesterday.
Not sure if anything I did made a difference or if I was just lucky.

One thing I am curious about though is why does the scheduled task not appear in task scheduler in windows? I had looked there before thinking I should be able to delete or disable the tasks there but could not see anything.

Have you tried this? Exit The Bat, rename EVENTS.CFG to EVENTS-CFG.OLD, restart The Bat.  The events.cfg file should be in your mail folder. If it works, all scheduled tasks will be gone.

George, yes, I noticed this in the past but can live with that.  Annoying but no deal breaker but right now I cannot get this backup to end at all - the program is unusable.  The moment I boot up, that aborted backup starts and once it finishes the next one starts. There is no chance to open tools to disable anything.  I hope there is a way to get this to stop.

This is old annoying "feature" when internal backup works you can't work with program.

I recently moved my TB fr om one pc to a new pc and restored my tbk file. Everything worked fine except my regular backups via Tools/Scheduler did not work as the destination address had changed.  Initially I tried to just amend the destination address but had some issues, then I decided to just delete the old schedules and start fresh. Unfortunately I set up a schedule and misconfigured this. I am not sure but I think I misread the box wh ere you specify what to do after the schedule runs and whatever I entered there creates an immediate new backup.
I need to know how to stop this as every time I cancel the task, the next backup starts immediately preventing me from accessing tools and fixing it there.

How can I open TB and not have the aborted backups start immediately preventing me from using TB?
