I've added a Windows 10 PC and added it to my Windows Home Server 2011 machine for backing up. It attempts to back up at the appropriate time but stops at 1% and reports it as a failure. Is WHS 2011 not compatable with Windows 10, and therafter Windows 11? If they are, how do I fix backups to run on schedule?

    Support ended in 2016

    https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/lifecycle/products/windows-home-server-2011

    so client versions patched / released after this date would be questionable.

    No question windows 10 security and such has changed since 2016

    Always worked past the supported date

    Unfortunately, there's no guarantees here since WHS 2011 is long out of support.
