Try the Other Tasks > Fix VSS Problems option in Reflect to see if that resolves it. Even AV shouldn't be interfering with general VSS snapshot creation, since that's a core Windows technology that has several legitimate uses.Īs a workaround if you just need to get this clone done asap so you can get away from a suspected failing drive, the fastest route would probably be to boot from your Reflect Rescue Media and run the clone from there, since the Rescue environment doesn't need and therefore doesn't use VSS, which means it should sidestep this problem entirely.Īnd then in terms of an actual fix so you can perform future clones/image backups from within "real" Windows on a regular basis, e.g. Additionally, reading that error more closely now, I see that it wasn't Reflect being denied access to the VSS snapshot from which to create the clone, but rather Windows VSS itself being denied access to the disk in order to create the snapshot in the first place. But if you're already uninstalled your AV entirely, then there's no need to do that anymore at least in the short term to get this working. Just as AV solutions typically allow you to block certain folders from being scanned, you can also often "whitelist" applications from having their behavior monitored and interfered with. Check security on the volume, and try the operation again.Īutomatically choosing a diff-area volumeĪny ideas what I am doing wrong? Would an image be a better route?īy excluding the EXEs, I meant go into your anti-virus solution and tell it not to block activity initiated by those applications. Denying administrators from accessing volume roots can cause many unexpected failures, and will prevent VSS from functioning properly. Volume Shadow Copy Service warning: VSS was denied access to the root of volume \\?\Volume\. I looked in the VSS log and had this (2x): I ran chkdsk /r right before trying the last clone run.
I think I have disabled the antivirus (Norton Security).
I have tried to clone a few times and always get this error, when at about 90% complete on the 2nd partition (which is where all the data is). I have tried to clone a drive that seems to be failing - have had to run disk repair on it a few times recently.
