Original title: computer backup

When you try to back up my computer, I get a message that says "a snapshot could not be created. Storage insufficient to create the shadow copy storage file. My D drive shows that it is full. Can I format drive D I can backup?

Hello

The D: partition is normally your recovery partition that you do not touch with the exception of the enumerated grounds.

You don't tell us the size of your D: partition.

There are between 5-15GBs, is the recovery partition and read more:

Your recovery Partition was photographed on your hard drive during the production of your computer by the manufacturer for all of these reasons.

1. to reinstall Vista from in the case of a failure of the system, based on individuals or the keys at startup.

F10 or Alt + F10 or F11 are a couple of different manufacturers use sequences.

You will need to ask your manufacturer for proper sequence.

2. to make the recovery disks on if your drive hard breaks down, so that you can then reinstall the operating system on a new hard drive.

Also ask them how to make records.

Your D: Recovery Drive is should not be used for backups, defragmented, etc..

There are backups on an external hard drive.

To resolve the problems that have arisen with the recovery D: Partition, you will need to contact the manufacturer of your computer to remove all that has been added to it.
