Time Machine error code 92

I get the error code 92 "Backup failed - time machine could not back up to Elements SE"


This initially happened after updating to Catalina on my iMac. I was using a Lacie drive and thought I would need to update my back up disk. So bought an Elements drive to replace it. This however made no difference and the back up continues to fail.


What could be the solution to this problem, to get the Time Machine to work properly?

Thanks

iMac 27", macOS 10.15

If you can't find the solution to the TM problem except to get a new drive give the OWC Mercury Elite Pros a try. They are very high quality drives and enclosures with excellent customer support and warranty behind them. Also reasonably in priced.
