Issues with Volume Shadow Copy Service: How do I "reset" registry/com dll registration?

I

icnocop

Hello.

I am having issues with Volume Shadow Copy Service and I would like to
know what I can do to "reset" the volume shadow copy service entries in
the registry by re-registering dlls.

This is happening on Windows XP Professional 64-bit SP2, but I've had
it happen before on the 32-bit version.

I've tried to un-register and re-register vss_ps.dll in system32 and
SysWOW64 but to no avail.

Here are two examples of the problems I am experiencing:

Hello.

I am having issues with Volume Shadow Copy Service and I would like to
know what I can do to "reset" the volume shadow copy service entries in
the registry by re-registering dlls.

This is happening on Windows XP Professional 64-bit SP2, but I've had
it happen before on the 32-bit version.

I've tried to un-register and re-register vss_ps.dll in system32 and
SysWOW64 but to no avail.

Here are two examples of the problems I am experiencing:

If this is currently occurring on x64 XP Pro, then post to an x64 newsgroup
such as microsoft.public.windows.64bit.general

Have you tried just using Services Mgmt to be sure it's set to Automatic?
It doesn't like being set to Manual I've noticed.

Thank you, Poprivet.

The "Volume Shadow Copy" windows service was set to Manual.

Unfortunately, even when I set it to Automatic and then manually
started it, I experienced the same issues. I even tried to reboot.

Any other ideas?

Ok, I just figured it out!

Windows XP 64-bit takes after Windows 2003, so I had to use the
"server" version of vshadow.exe
