Whats wrong when back up crash - Photoshop elements 12

Report · Jan 22, 2018

System is running on Windows 10.

When back up is almost ready, it stops with the message "a fault has appeared when writing a file or files C:..." See below.

This happens every time I run back up.

What does the message mean? and

what has caused the stop? and go

how to fix it?

Is there enough free space on the drive?

Report · Jan 22, 2018

There has been 15 - 40 GB ffree space. Today 40 GB free space. Elements contains about 27000 pictures => 60 GB.

The C: disc 195 GB.

OneDrive is running on the computer with 12 - 6 GB on the C:. 6 GB today.

That really isn't enough.

You need a larger drive.

Now there are 52 GB free space on C: where the Photoshop Element 12 is.

The target discs free space when I started a back up today was 93 GB and 37 GB was still free.

When it crashed 93% was done => the back up map was 52 GB with 65504 files.

I followed the process today. 72% was done in 30 min, 90% in 55 min and 93% in 60 min.

How does the process work? Does it take db by db or does it take "picture" by "picture" with its belonging databases?

How much space do you think I should have on C: and target disc when back up starts?

Some more information from todays try.

The crash was on the same "picture" as the other day.

Try removing that picture and see what happens.

I have tryied that before with the result that the back up will stop at some of the "the next" "picture".

I am moving my files to OneDrive to get more free space and will try again soon.

Thanks for your helping me.
