Scheduled local backups fail in XP Pro unless there is a user in the
administrator group logged on at the time of the backup. Simply scheduling
the backup in an admin account and then switching (without logging off) to a
limited account does not work, it gives this error message instead of
running the backup: "In order to backup, your logon user account must be a
member of the Administrator group." While I can run NTI Backup "manually"
from the limited account using "Run as," I can't figure out how to schedule
backups that will run while a limited user is logged on, or while all
accounts are logged off. (The NTI Backup scheduler program accompanies the
NTI Backup program, this is not the Windows scheduler.)

NTI doesn't try to hide this program limitation, it is clear in their
documentation, but it is still annoying. I like the program and would prefer
to continue using it. Can anyone think of a workaround?
