Andy, Files were backed, basically the OS & System Objects..etc..., over 2GB, would you include these in "data that doesn't compress well" ?

For example, maybe the backup with 0% compression occurred because no data was backed up. You show "objects -domain=-F:". If this is literally what you have coded, that would explain it, since there is no file system on Windows that goes by naming convention "-domain=-F:". Or maybe no files were eligible for backup. Maybe the data you backed up does not compress very well. Or the second scheduled event is overriding the local options file COMPRESSION setting via a schedule option.
