This error has to be one of the most famous error. I have installed SQL Server quite a many times, but I keep on getting this error once in a while. This is also one of the most searched error online. I have previously blogged about this but today, I planned to create a small video on the same subject. In this video, I demonstrate how one can resolve the permissions issue with this error. Let us learn about fixing a backup error.
Here are few other blog posts related to this error, which I have written earlier.
- SQL SERVER – FIX – ERROR : Msg 3201, Level 16 Cannot open backup device .Operating system error 5(Access is denied.)
- SQL SERVER -Fix Error – Cannot open backup device. Operating system error 5(Access is denied.)
- SQL SERVER – FIX : ERROR : (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 – Could not open a connection to SQL Server) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: )
- SQL SERVER – FIX : Error 3154: The backup set holds a backup of a database other than the existing database – SSMS
- SQL SERVER -Fix Error – Cannot open backup device. Operating system error 5(Access is denied.)
Let me know if you have faced such error and was able to fix with any other method. I would love to know the same so I can blog with due credit to you.
