How would i set up windows back up to back up all user accounts on a PC no matter who is logged in? example: a pc has 3 users, i want documents and settings backed up for all 3 users at once which is easy, but i want to setup just one back up that would run and back up those 3 users even if a user 4 was logged on that pc when they wherent supposed to be.

I thought i had it figured out since when i made a back up under user1 to back up all 3 users files then logged on under user2 and it was in the scheduled task list but it would still only run under the user it was setup for.

Have you tried writing a batch file to copy the specified files and directories and then add it as a scheduled task to run under a local administrator account?

no we wanted to try and use the built in windows back up program to stay on par with all our other backups.
