Backup4all uses the Volume Shadow Copy Service (VSS) to back up open/locked files. Under certain circumstances the VSS service fails to run properly and Backup4all will not be able to backup some locked files (log file will show The process cannot access the file because another process has locked a portion of the file. or The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process).
