Azure Backup on Windows 10 Fails
Keith
I am sorry I don't remember the details but I had the same issue on my Windows 10 machine at home. If I remember correctly it had to do with task scheduler not the backup agent. The backup agent creates a job in task scheduler. I think it was either a permissions issue or there was something about allowing task scheduler to wake up the computer to run the job.
Maybe you would see the error in the task scheduler event log.

John,
Thank you. That indeed was the issue. I created the backup using the Azure Backup application. Apparently, when it made the task, it didn't put a userID/password associated with it, so it just didn't run. I manually put my UserID and password into the job and it kicked off on the next run.
