Windows 10: System Image Backup fails with error code 0x8078007D

I have tried every thing and spend a lot of time to find out after the Backup is finished (24 Hrs) , that the backup failed .

1) on a 1 year old computer

2)I have a 1 TB hard drive only 25% utilized

3) Backup drive 3 TB "WD My book Live" only 903GB utilized

3) the System Image Backup starts normally and continues 24 Hrs and at the end I get the following message "


Create a system image

The backup failed

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

System Image Backup fails with error code 0x8078007D

Since upgrading to Windows 10 I get error code 0x8078007D just as System Image Backup completes. The message indicates that new bad sectors were found and these were not backed up. I new I had bad sectors. They were not new. I had repaired these with
CHKDSK C: /f /r and SFC.EXE /scannow shows no corruption. I would have thought Backup would simply ignore the bad sectors. Actually it appears the system image backup does get created but with this error message coming up every time, I can't be sure the
image backups are valid. How can I fix this?

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.
