Make sure that the directory names do not contain special symbols, like “.” or “..” This can cause the backup file to fail if it’s too long.

The next step is to verify that the file’s name is correct. The name of the file can be changed but will not alter its contents. However it will not be listed in the list of backup files. It is recommended that the backup file be deleted if the file is an altered version of the original. This can be done by running the command ALTER DATABASE and entering the new name into the appropriate fields.
