Backup not complete again

What version of Windows? Normally you are required to create a user name as part of the windows setup when you first turn on the PC. Usually there is a password as well - though there are ways to turn that off.
The windows username is what you called "myaccount".
You can confirm this by clicking control-alt-delete on the windows system, and (if needed) select "start task manager". Then click on the users tab on the far right. That will show you your windows user name.
Use that name (not administrator) as credential for the Windows share in the NAS backup job. If there is no password, then leave that entry blank.
