Hi

Is it possible to use PC object instead of a user for authentication on "Enable App-aware processing" and "Enable guest file system indexing" ?

When i add the backup user computer object i also have to specify a password, not sure what to enter here ?
See picture : https://ibb.co/kTp8jk

Or is it best practice to use a dedicated AD user for backup purposes.
Is it enough to add the user to backup operators group or is it required to be a local admin ?

Hi,

It has to have local admin privileges. Please check this article for details.
