SYMPTOMS

The Windows NT Backup utility (NTBACKUP.EXE) generates the following error message when the system date is greater than the year 2070:

   An application error has occurred and an application error log is being
   generated.

                        NTBACKUP.EXE
   Exception: access violation (0xc0000005), Address:0x0182aa2d
                    

NOTE: If you have Dr. Watson installed, this error message may also appear in the Dr. Watson error log.

CAUSE

NTBACKUP uses the clib function time(). The initial release of NTBACKUP did not check the return value and if the year is out of reach, this function returns 0 (zero).

RESOLUTION

To work around this problem, change the date to the current year or to a year earlier than 2071.
