Re: SyncBack cannot connet to remote machine

Unless you made arrangements to the contrary, the profile will be trying to use the credentials you are logged in to Windows with on the not-Mars machine to effect the network connection to Mars. As stated previously, you cannot connect (by any method) to the same server (Mars) from the same client (not-Mars) PC using two or more sets of credentials at the same time. Windows doesn't permit that. And you are already using Mars-based credentials to map S: so you cannot use not-Mars credentials to effect a UNC connection

You may be able to prevent this by adding the same Mars\username & password on Modify > Expert > Network (IOW, tell SE to use the same credentials as mapped-drive S is using).

It may also be necessary to toggle the 'try which first' setting on Network > Advanced. Sometimes Windows sulks if you try credentials it won't accept first, and it then won't immediately accept any others.

But mappings can be fussy about sharing with direct-UNC access, so you may either need to use S: in your profile or drop the mapping. Note that the mapped drive won't work on a Schedule (see para-2 here) unless (maybe) you are logged in at the time anyway. But using a UNC path (and storing the Mars credentials, etc) should mean it works on a Schedule
