Windows 10: error 0x8078007D

Error given at end of creating a System Image

System Image Backup fails with error code 0x8078007D

Windows 7 Error Code (0x8078007D)

 

Windows 10 V1607 Image Backup error code (0x8078007D)

When attempting to do an image backup under this version of Windows I get the above error as follows:

Just before the backup progress reaches completion the backup fails with error code: 0x8078007D

Backup and Restore Error:

The backup failed. New bad clusters were found on the source volume. These clusters were not backed up. (0x8078007D)

I have thoroughly checked the drive and there is nothing wrong with the drive.

I have also found a thread on the web that states that it can be fixed by messing about with the unallocated space on the hard drive however I have performed this procedure and this has not fixed the issue.

The article does say that it has happened to Windows Vista upgrades to Windows 7 and then clean install of Windows 10 which is what this computer is however the solution provided did fix the issue.

I have an image backup of V1511 which I can probably restore but I thought I would ask if anyone else has had this issue and has overcome it any other way so that I can keep this machine up to date.

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

 

Error: No work available to process

Hmm. Either it's put out errors and WCG is limiting the work units available, or the project list may not be set to supply other WU when one runs out. (if the problem lies here and not on your end)

On the options to your left, if you go into Results Status, select the computer from Device Name and then look through results see if either they were returned late, errors or any other kind of issue that would stop the servers supplying WU from that perspective.

If there are no errors then it's maybe down to your project list. So selecting Device Manager from the left menu and then clicking on the profile assigned to that computer and make sure that it's assigned to receive WU for other projects if they run out.

At least those steps will rule out problems from the WCG end.
