Hello Brian

Can you share with me the use case to cancel a job with task manager?
Jobs should be stopped through backup console or PowerShell when ever possible.

Best,
Fabian

There are some times when the job is stuck for hours and we have it cancelled it using task manager in v11.

You can still do it but with a bit of PowerShell help.
If you run Get-VBRJob -Name '%job name%' | fl that will give you the job ID / UUID and then you can use that with cmd line option in task manager.
Hope that helps
