backup crash

this problem is mostly my fault, but i can't seem to fix it. i don't like the backup functionality and wanted to use a third party one. i was using it and had it on a schedule. i deleted the backup files on my backup drive, but forgot to turn off the back up. now the action center in the sys tray says a backup is in progress all the time. it was crashing frequently for a while till i disabled the back up in services. so seems stable for now, but the sys tray still says a back up is in progress. any ideas?

Hi and welcome

So you now dont have a backup to restore from, right? Is the system working ok besides the backup services?

yes. there are no windows backup files. yeah, it's seems ok except for the darn notification that i can't get rid of
