Anyone can help?
I wonder if stopping the BE services in the Windows Services Console and then retrying to delete images again.
Yes, I try to stop all the BE related service and still told me did not have the permission, as my account is the admin account already and also disable the lockdown service
Cause An "Access Denied" error message can occur for one or more of the following reasons:
- The folder ownership has changed.
- You do not have the appropriate permissions.
- The folder's files are encrypted.
Checking the privileges of the Users on the folder's Security properties. Were there encrypted backups?
By default, Backup Exec keeps the most recent backup sets necessary to restore any backed-up component of a server, even if the backup sets expire.
If backup sets depend on other backup sets, then Backup Exec does not delete the backup set until all expiration dates on the backup sets are reached. Even if
the backup set is displayed as expired, the data is available until all dependent backup sets also expire.
