Backup Stuck at 27 MB - Barely Gets Started

Thread solved

This is the 2nd PC I've seen have problems with ATI 2016. I can't get the backup to progress at all. I've tried uninstalling/reinstalling after running the clean utility, but it's still the same problem, stuck at 27 MB. I'm running Windows 10 Pro 21H1. Are there problems now with ATI 2016 and Windows 10 versions?

Joel, there should be no issue with using ATI 2016 with Windows 10 to my knowledge.

When the backup pauses at 27MB that is normally just an indication that it has processed the smaller hidden / system partitions on the drive and is now preparing to process the further, larger partitions.

How long have you waited for ATI to show more progress?

It may be worth running CHKDSK for the source disk and if appropriate, doing a disk defrag is the drive is a HDD (not a SSD).

Well, I found the problem with this one, since it failed and issued me all kinds of VSS errors in the log. I ran VSS doctor and it had a small recovery partition that didn't have enough available space, so I deleted it and all appears fine now. Thx.
