This error can occur when you specify a backup destination to which you don't have access rights. In general only administrators or users with administrator priveleges should use enhanced windows backup.
Alternatively, the drive that you have specified is using a proprietary incompatible file system. For example this problem might occur when you try to write directly to a CD-R or DVD-R or similar media. This is not supported.
