I find your icon is very small and sometimes I do not notice it. A bolder message option to notice the user that a backup had failed would be useful
I build my own that runs at startup and looks at the logs to determine if a backup failed or not.
You can do a better job than me but here is my script that checks for bad entries in the log
@echo off
mode con cols=75 lines=20
findstr /m /v /c:"Image Completed Successfully" /c:"Restore completed" c:\programdata\macrium\reflect\*.html > check_backup.txt
rem the html file is one long string
rem the command is looking for the listed variables
rem if it does not find them the return code is 0 else its 1
rem using a negative search option /v
if errorlevel 1 goto waitexit
rem no error zero return get out else
rem add red background white letters
color 4F
Echo.

Alternatively, an error handler function could be added to one of Reflect's own scripts for running the backup task definition so that it pops up an appropriate message based on the return code.
