Duplicati error starting to backup:
Error: Could not load file or assembly “C:\Program Files\Duplicati 2\AlphaVSS.x64.dll” No se puede encontrar el modulo especificado.
Here is the File as seen by the OS:
Notes on installation:
A user named Quad (member of Administrators group) installed Duplicati.
Quad user started duplicati, logoff and login as Administrator
Administrator ran the backup job and got this AlphaVSS error.
Notes on usage:
1- While the user Quad is a member of the local admin group and defines all program settings, those settings are not shared among local users. the user administrator had to define all settings again.
2- Quad user cannot see the HyperV machine list menu list, but administrator user can.
Troubleshooting steps:
1- as administrator I stopped the duplicati program. started it again.
2- deleted job, created a new job from scratch.
3- ran backup, same error cannot find the Alpha VSS file.
4- tried enabling verbose logging and debug log, but no messages are shown. perhaps the options are not intuitive?
5- installed Duplicati on its own path, as the user administrator. (C:\Duplicati2) to avoid any issues with language paths. same load error about AlphaVSS.
I will continue to do some tests and update this thread.
