Every evening at 22:00 a backup is made, after the backup the following command is issued : "shutdown /f /s". So the system is down.
In one night every 2 weeks at 3:00 the system is booted. Unattended
What could be the reason of the boot?

    We have the culprit here

    Check with SyncBackPro options and remove the task.
    This one should be found also on Scheduled Tasks.
