Just carried out all the checks given in the gfi.com link, including re-registering vss files. No change, still the same log_vss.txt when I try to do a backup. Also nothing in the "vssadmin" writers or provider lists.
Will try your other suggestions.

Hi Shane
Sorry for the delay but I am in the UK.
During my own investigation I was pointed to that reg key but found I did not have the "Catalogs" or "visio" sub keys. Just to see if that was the area of the problem I added the following, which, from information on the web site, was the default:-
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\ContentIndex\Catalogs\System
Entry name Data type Value
(Default) REG_SZ (value not set)
IsIndexingNNTPSvc REG_DWORD 0x0000000 (0)

Location REG_SZ C:\System Volume Information
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\ContentIndex\Catalogs\Web
Entry name Data type Value

FilterFilesWithUnknownExtensions REG_DWORD 0x0000000 (0)

Unfortunately it didn't help.

Hi Shane,
No sign of MicrosoftSQL iin add/remove programs, but on my system drive there are some SQL folders associated with Net Framework 3. Should I try to get hold of Microsoft SQL?

Hi
I am running Windows XP and am trying to use your Registry Backup program. Unfortunately it keeps failing to produce a backup with the following Log_VSS.txt file.
I have tried your VSS repair program but no improvement.
Any ideas what is wrong. The rest of my system seems to be working fine.

I am running Windows XP and am trying to use your Registry Backup program. Unfortunately it keeps failing to produce a backup with the following Log_VSS.txt file.
I have tried your VSS repair program but no improvement.
Any ideas what is wrong. The rest of my system seems to be working fine.
