If you run a backup job manually, it successfully works, however, when it runs as a scheduled job it fails with the error message: “Cannot perform the requested operation on an item that does not exist. Type: Xceed.FileSystem.DiskFile”, you can around this issue with one of the below solutions.
- Open the backup job with SQLBackupAndFTP software and setup a temporary folder for the job, for example, C:\Temp. You can find this option in the “Advanced Settings” window.
- Schedule the job with your credentials using the “Run scheduled job as” option at the “Advanced Backup Schedule” window.
