Windows 10: 0x80080005 backup error ever since the new Windows 1809 update build

Hi I have been unable to backup my computer's system image, because of this error.


I Googled search for any known solutions for this problem. And had tried to verify the system files but there wasn't anything wrong there.


I tried to change the C: drive's ownership to ADMINISTRATOR or SYSTEM. But still no good. As it wouldn't allow me to change all of the system's directories. Such as "SYSTEM VOLUME INFORMATION" and a few odd .sys files.


I tried to fix the problem by doing a clean boot and tried running Windows Backup but this error still popped up. So I then went back into normal boot mode.


I even tried resetting the ownership of the C: drive with the Admin Command. But that didn't help either.


I don't know what to do to fix this error. Should I revert back to the previous Windows version since I still have that data on my computer or wait until Microsoft releases an update fix for this problem?

:)

Hi, this thread:
Fresh Windows 10 Activation/Update Issue Solved - Windows 10 Forums

suggests the error number may occur where one of the OTHER drives has a problem.

Your specs don't say whether you have other drives installed.

Anyway, worth using Hard Disk Sentinel (trial) - the best text summary of such programs I've seen- to check your disks. Failing that check SMART params and do a surface scan with something else.
