VSS shadow storages are misconfigured
I installed ATI 2017 on a Gateway Laptop Windows 10 Founders update. Each backup I tried would stop with message "Failed to back up file or folder \\?\GLOBALROOT\Device\harddiskvolumeshadowcopy2\" followed by a filename from the backup. If I click ignore, the backup finishes with a number of files missed.
I looked on the forums and found some topics. I downloaded the VSS Acronis Doctor, and the VSS Shadow Storages Status says Some VSS shadow storages are misconfigured. ForVolume: C:\ Allocated: 0 B TargetMaximum: 44GB
After hitting the "Fix issues" button, it says "If you are sure that you understand consequences of these actions and still want to proceed, click Yes." So it seems like a no-brainer, but of course I don;'t understand the consequences. Any reason not to say "Yes"?
The log also shows some Warnings - Source: Ntfs message: The file system structure on volume c: has now been repaired. I did not initiate a file system structure repair. Also many "bad block" errors. Any suggestions on how to handle them?
Thanking in advance
