The error message I posted came from the pgAdmin log. The pgAdmin error message window states "An error has occurred: Execution of command ' -i -h localhost -p 5432 -U postgres -F -c -b -v -f"E:\Backup\test1.backup" npcat_db' failed (error 2: the system cannot find the file specified.)"

This doesn't look like a msg from pgadmin. Post the whole text from pgAdmin's message tab.
