  3. Blocked system restore points, Error 0x81000202 and Volume Shadow Copy not working etc.

    When trying to update drivers with different aps I suddenly got blocked with a message that no restore point could be created. I later got 0x81000202 messages and a block on trying to access areas to reset restore point. These included Volume shadow copy
    is not working. I am a simple soul, not a nerd, and just don't know what to do. Several attempts to use suggestions from the Community are similarly blocked or the computer can't find the file reference. I suspect the problem may be associated with a wadge
    of anti-malware and clean-up progs I have installed, but don't know how to disable them safely, if that is a necessary step to solve the problem. Really worries and would appreciate help. Am running Windows 10. Thanks guys, Peter R.

    System Restore Error 0x81000203 - can't create shadow copies

    Please help me to diagnose and fix my VSS errors. Symptoms include:
    • When visiting the System Protection tab in System Properties, I get the error message: "There was an unexpected error in the property page. System Restore encountered an error. Please try to run System Restore again. (0x81000203) Please close the property page and try again."
    • In the event log I get an error with event ID 12293: "Volume Shadow Copy Service error: Error calling a routine on a Shadow Copy Provider {b5946137-7b9f-4925-af80-51abd60b20d5}. Routine details IVssSnapshotProvider::IsVolumeSupported() failed with 0x8000ffff [hr = 0x8000ffff, Catastrophic failure]. Operation: Check If Volume Is Supported by ProviderContext: Execution Context: Coordinator Provider ID: {b5946137-7b9f-4925-af80-51abd60b20d5} Volume Name: \\?\Volume{48a79008-0000-0000-0000-100000000000}\

    The Volume ID refers to my system volume.

    So far, I have tried the following:
    • vssadmin list writers — no errors shown
    • sfc /scannow — no errors found
    • chkdsk c: /f — no errors found
    • I've even done a repair install of Windows, which didn't fix it.
    • I enabled VSS tracing (trace attached), which identified at least the following errors:
      • THROW[CVssMachineInformation::GetMinDiffAreaOnVolume] Could not send the IOCTL 0x00534058 on device \\?\Volume{48a79008-0000-0000-0000-100000000000} - 0x000001cc. [0x00000001]
      • Cannot retrieve minimum diff area for volume \\?\Volume{48a79008-0000-0000-0000-100000000000}\ [0x8000ffff]. Using the default value 335544320

    However, despite plenty of googling, I'm none the wiser at trying to fix those errors, and I'd be grateful for any help.

    Thanks in advance.
