I have one of 4 PC running win 7 that will not run back up vis WHS 2011. About 6 week ago the back up failed and would no run. I beleive that was because the drive was hit with a power surge. I have run check disk /f and the drives are all ok now.
When the disk had a problem, the client error log reported VSS error. Now it says Windows Server Client Computer Backup Provider Service is not running. From Service, when I try to start it, it fails to start because the process did not respond in time.
Some blog suggested that the backup log on the client was damaged, so I ran the repair tool and it repored no problem.
Without the Backup Provider Service I can't restore to the last good backup either.
Any clues or suggestion will be appreciated.
