Hello all, I have a solution for this error, I have googled but couldnt find any solutions for this error:
ok here is my solution: Go to device manager and from the View menu enable "Show Hidden Devices" then you will see "Storage Volume Shadow Copies" devices , then delete (uninstall) all the "generic volume..." devices under the " Storage Volume Shadow Copies" then restart pc and after restart goto system protection and wait for Vista to create the devices you have deleted before the boot.
After this step create a recovery point because all of the shadow copies have been deleted and reconstructed
(
this solution worked for me but i need some people to approve it !!!
