Have you got both
MS Software Shadow Copy Provider and
Volume Shadow Copy services set to at least manual under Services. If Not Volume shadow copy will fail.

| Win XP SP2
| All Disks Formatted NTFS
|
| The volume shadow functionality which previously worked on this system now
| fails with the error:
|
| Error returned while creating the volume shadow copy:8004230f
| Reverting to non-shadow copy backup mode.
|
| Initially there was a problem with the COM+ System Application service which
| would not start, but after following the steps regarding fixing this in MS
| KB: 315296 it now starts without errors.
|
| However the Volume shadow copy error remains.
| MS KB article 283085 - describes a very closly related if not the same issue
| relating to the failure of the Shadow Copy but offers no guidelines or
| suggestions, I have been watching this article since January hoping for it to
| be updated but this has not happened.
|
| Looking around Google I found a list of .Dlls to re-register in such cases
| and the following were registered succesfully:
|
| regsvr32 ole32.dll
| regsvr32 vss_ps.dll
| Vssvc /Register
| Regsvr32 /i eventcls.dll
| regsvr32 es.dll
| regsvr32 stdprov.dll
| regsvr32 msxml.dll
| regsvr32 msxml3.dll
|
| However attempts to run the following give errors ...
|
| regsvr32 /i swprv.dll returns the error "DLLInstall in swprv.dll
| failed. Return Code was: 0x8000ffff"
|
| regsvr32 VSSAPI.DLL returns the error VSSAPI.DLL was loaded, but the
| DllRegister server entry point was not found. VSSAPI.DLL does not appear to
| be a .DLL or .OCX file."
|
| I replaced VSSAPI.DLL with a clean copy in case it had corrupted, but this
| didn't change the error returned from regsvr32.
|
| I am *very keen* to get the shadow copy service oprerational again, help
| will be appreciated.
|
| Thanks.
