Windows 10 April 2018 Update, Windows 10 October 2018 Update, and Windows 10 May 2020 Update include an issue with Microsoft OneDrive Files On-Demand that Retrospect 15 does not fully resolve. Details
Windows 10 April 2018 Update, Windows 10 October 2018 Update, and Windows 10 May 2020 Update prevent complete backups in Retrospect 12 due to a change in Microsoft OneDrive Files On-Demand. Details
Windows 10 and subsequent updates have included many feature improvements and under-the-hood changes, including how the system allocates memory to applications. Because of this memory change, previous versions of Retrospect expect a different memory allocation method and can become unstable during backup, restore, duplicate, and grooming operations. Retrospect 12 for Windows fixed this issue.
