DB backup usually produces a BAK file, which when restored creates MDF and LDF files in the SQL Server Data directory.

It could be a permission issue, or your backup was not produced properly.

Also, check your DB Backup Settings, here…

i think its a permission Issue .My DB BACKUP SETTING is the same as your except i don’t have Auto create backups before upgrading to a new version , Manage addon licenses on backup restore.
What would you suggest if it is in fact a permission issue.

The error message suggests its more than just permissions, if you want to be sure restore from a different location or add NT Service MSSQL for your SQL to the folder permissions.

Sambapos v5 backup

Personally find in samba simple and easy. Search for NT Service on the forum and you can give SQL permissions for a directory of choice if you want somewhere specific. You manually add SQL service - should look something like NT Service\MSSQL$SAMBAPOS and give full access.
