  3. Windows 10 Pro Error codes returned after failing making a second System Image Backup

    After creating a successful image backup on my second hard drive, I placed that backup into an
    identifiable folder. Then I perform some system changes and start an image bakup again however it will now fail with the following error messages/codes:

    - There was a failure compacting the virtual hard disk on the backup location. (0x80780151).

    -Additional Information:

    The process cannot access the file because its being used by another process. (0x80070020).

    After a reboot its possible to create a system image backup again.

    This was not happening with Windows 8.1 Pro

    How to execute a second System Image backup that will avoid this failure?

    failure in the backup image

    Windows built-in backup imaging has historically proven to give people lots of failures in both creating images and restoring them. If your goal is reliability in your backups and ability to restore them, then we suggest using Macrium Reflect Free instead of built-in Windows imaging.

    Macrium Reflect Free


    If you absolutely insist on using Windows built-in imaging, a complete screenshot of disk management with the columns expanded so we can see all the information would help immensely:
