Failed to Create Volume Snapshot Macrium Error 0x8004230f VSS Error

Hi, you might try this:
Microsoft Volume Shadow Copy (VSS) Troubleshooting - Microsoft Volume Shadow Copy (VSS) Troubleshooting

or the free cautious repair tool
Tweaking.com - Windows Repair Free/Pro
- observing the steps and using only the relevant repairs

More:
How to Fix VSS Errors Step-by-Step

Otherwise I suggest- assuming your disk and file system are sound-
an in-place upgrade repair install which keeps all progs, data and most settings

You need an iso of the same base language and build- freely downloadable.

 

VSS is corrupt and need to enable to create backup

Hi, two repair utilities come to mind:

a. Tweaking.com's free cautious repair tool offers a number of repairs. One of them is VSS.
Just search for it: select only the repair you need, and follow the preparatory steps.

b. Macrium Reflect offers a feature to fix VSS issues:




Troubleshooting Microsoft VSS errors - KnowledgeBase v7.2 - Macrium Reflect Knowledgebase - KnowledgeBase v7.2 - Macrium Reflect Knowledgebase

Finally I just came across this, by Acronis... did they not suggest it?

VSS errors during upgrade to Windows 10, should I care?

Hi,

Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

For better assistance, please share the information:

• Are you using the installation media in USB or a DVD/CD?
• Do you have any backup for Windows 10?

The issue might have been occurred while installing/upgrading to Windows 10. The services may have not been loaded at the time of installation. So, I suggest you to check if the VSS service is running in Services by following the steps provided below:

• Press Windows key + R key, type services.msc
  and press Enter.
• From the list of services, locate and right click on Volume Shadow Copy
  and select Properties.
• Check if the service is running. If not, set the startup type
  as Automatic, click on Apply and OK.
• Restart the system and check for status.

Hope this helps. Keep us posted on the status for further assistance.
