It blocks things it thinks are sketchy.
You end up with failed runs and scratched heads.
I remember this one time at my buddy's shop.
They had antivirus locked down tight on their server.
Backups kept bombing out mid-process.
The software flagged the backup tool as malware.
We spent hours poking around logs.
Turned out it was quarantining files left and right.
Frustrating as hell, right?
Your setup might be doing the same dance.
But let's fix this without the hassle.
First, you could pause the security stuff just for backup time.
Schedule it around when the antivirus chills out.
Or tweak the rules to let your backup app slide by.
Add it to the trusted list, you know?
Update both the security and backup software too.
Patches often sort these clashes.
If it's a firewall thing, open ports carefully.
Test small backups first to see what sticks.
And check event viewer for clues on what's blocking.
Reboot after changes, always helps shake things loose.
You might need to chat with support if it's stubborn.
