SSD Toolbox: No Optimization due to " Volume Shadow Copy Service data"

Hi all and support!

In an other thread some users had problems running the new optimizer in the SSD Toolbox 1.2.

Me too - 😉

Running XP pro 32 bit with system recovery disabled (via ssd tweaker util) and volume shadow copy service (vssvc.exe) manually disabled.

There are no system recovery points stored. Additionally I stopped all services that are bound to the backup software Acronis True Image Home

that I have installed. Even when starting XP in secured mode (German: Abgesicherter Modus via F8 at start time) the optimizer didn't start.

Version 1.1 worked so far I could see - I didn't check the variation of access times.

Any hint or clue?

Only one Win XP partition (full size, NTFS) and w/o any hidden (service) partitions.

IMO this is Toolbox 1.2.0 bug. When I stopped the Volume Shadow Copy service and start Toolbox Optimizing then Toolbox started the Volume Shadow Copy service and show error (but show error too when VSC service is definitely turned off).

Don't know if this helps, but you can try to delete volume shadow copy files:

(Note: be careful with what you select to delete)

I'm experiencing this problem too.

XP Pro 32 bits.

SSD X-25M 80GB G2 FW 02HD (One partition full capacity)

I hope next Toolbox version will solve this issue.

I have the same problem on Windows XP Pro.

The command "vssadmin list shadows" does not find any Volume Shadow Copy Data.
