W3404 Unable to open file. (FILE=C:\WINNT\system32\wins\wins.mdb, EC=SHARING VIOLATION)

These files cannot be backed up because they in use. 'Standard' backup software cannot backup open files. You have a few choices, stop the services linked to the open files before backing them up or use backup software that has an open file add-in or exclude these files from being backed up. You only exclude files from backups that aren't important!

I think you posted this in the wrong forum as well. Someone will tell you off no doubt.
