Hi,
I have scheduled a backup job and it was running all this week except today and I have received a message that it is failed. Looked for the reason and there was the folder I gave on the path was no longer there. Somebody have deleted the folder. I would like to know if it is possible to find out who deleted it and other details such as the time if its possible.
All your responses are appreciated and Thank you so much in advance.

JJ

To get some clues - check the Windows Event Viewer - Security section. Who logged on to the server?
Also , have you checked the Recycle Bin
