Hi
Rebooting the machine sometimes works!
If I run the scheduled backup manually it works! But fails if scheduled
I added this batch file before the backup runs
----------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------
net stop "Volume Shadow Copy"
net start "Volume Shadow Copy"
Net stop "VMware VSS Writer"
Net start "VMware VSS Writer"
vssadmin delete shadows /ALL
----------------------------------------------------

Listed below are the writers
