Macrium Reflect Backup Failures (problema resolutum est)
I noticed today that my daily Reflect backups had failed for the past three days, all with the same log file errors.
The Reflect help file has an entry for VSS Error: 0x8004231f - Failed to Create Volume Snapshot.
I started to research that, which led me to a Microsoft Community entry that suggested running sfc /scannow, followed by runnning:
DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Scanhealth
DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth
and a restart. None of that helped, but eventually I found a suggestion to reduce the number of Restore Points, but when I tried to enter the Restore Point module, I received yet another error, that RP would not work, with error 0x81000203. I tried to chase down what would fix that, to no avail.
I last created a RP perhaps three days ago, and at this juncture, don't know how to proceed to fix/repair/restore/ameliorate/whatever it is that is causing RP to fail, which, in turn may well be what is causing Reflect to also fail.
As always, advice, solace, imprecations/and other related suggestions are hereby solicited.
