I recently purchased the donation version. It worked fine until today I received a strange error message.
It tells me that it can not copy a file because it is locked by system.
However that file does not exist not even the folder of the file exists in this drive.
I have already checked if it is a hidden folder. But it is not.

The error reads:
Cannot read file "R:\Boot\BCD".

The file is locked by another process:
System

Any help is appreciated

Like I said, I already checked if it is a hidden folder. There is no such folder. Not in the backup nor the source.
