Cannot run the Windows backup utility, error: "a file already exists (0X800700B7)."

I have a Lenovo Think Pad with Windows Vista.  When I try to back up the computer, I choose backup and the location of tools accessory system configuration.  Then I run a backup to start and identify a DVD RW as the location of the backup files.  I click to start and a screen pops up saying

A file exists already (0X800700B7), and at this time it cannot be saved.

OX800700B7 is not a file name. It is an error code.

What follows is a response to the same problem. The person who had the problem was using 64-bit. But that makes no difference in this case. Follow th step by step posted by ABC_george and see if that fixes the problem.

    Original title: the service cannot be started, either because it is disabled or because it has no enabled devices is associated to him. (0 x 80070422)

    Hi Charles,

    Welcome to the community Microsoft and thanks for posting the question. I'll certainly try and help you perform the backup.

    Until we start could you give us some more information?

    1. Since when are you facing the issue?

    2. you have any anti-virus installed on the computer program?

    3. What are the troubleshooting steps correct you have taken to correct the problem?

    4. are you aware of any changes made to the computer before the show?

    I suggest you to re check the service as long as this error usually occurs if one of the services required for the backup Windows for work is disabled or has not started.

    To check the services, click Start, in the Start Search bar type services , and then press enter.

    Please check that the following services are enabled:

    -"Remote Procedure Call" (RPCSS) must be active, Automatic.

    'COM + Event System"(System events) must beactivated en, Manuel.

    -'System Event Notification Service"(SENSE) must be active, Automatic.

    -"Volume Shadow Copy" (VSS) must beactivated en, Manuel.

    'Microsoft Software Shadow Copy provider' (SWPRV) must beactivated en, Manuel.

    Once you make changes according to the above specifications, you can try a backup and check to see if that solves the problem.

    I also suggest you to run a SFC scan (System File Checker). This will replace the corrupted Windows files.

    Here are a few articles on Windows backup.

  • error 0 x 81000019 when you try to run the Windows backup utility

    original title: 0 x 81000019... Attention Microsoft

    Error code 0 x 8100019 and a sub-code when you use the utility backup of Windows 7... Finally resorted to re - format and re-installation of Win 7, then ran backup before installing the Microsoft updates, which was a success.

    Downloaded and installed the Microsoft updates and then run backup... back to the original problem. Logically, Microsoft, it appears that one or more of your updates has interfered with the Windows 7 backup utility... my time is limited and I paid for the product rather than be given to the problems with the product to sift... may your Tech run this through clean install and add each update to identify what, if any. are the cause of the problem?

  • How did resolve you the following problem when you run the windows backup utility? Error code 0 x 1000037 failed due to shadow copy.

    I tried to look for the answers and on google but the problem persists. Do not understand the junction / point analysis answer either!

    Hi Rohit,

    The problem was solved when I did a full Scan using the microsoft security essentials program. He has taken a few hours to analyse and found two problems with Java. I removed those and the backup took place without problems.
    Thank you

    my computer uses of Windows Vista Home Basic.

    Hello

    N ° as you have Vista Home Basic, you are just to save your own personal files (photos, music, documents, etc.), do not make a backup of the computer that would include updates, as the backup of the computer is an image of the operating system installed on the specified Date, it's done.

    To save all (backup of the computer), you should have Vista Business, Ultimate or enterprise.

  • I get the 0x8078012D error code when I run the Windows backup on an external hard drive.

    I get the 0x8078012D error code when I run the Windows backup on an external hard drive.  I have Windows 7 Professional.  That suggests this error code is the problem and how can I solve the problem?

    For people who read this thread, I offer the following information.  I solved the problem by noticing that the problem could have been caused, when the system image is created.  So I did a backup without creating the system image and backup is complete without error.

    Then I used the backup program to create a system image.  This time error (0x8007045D) was displayed.   The error report says "the operation failed for a device error encountered with the source or the destination. If the volume of the source or the destination is on a disk, run CHKDSK /R on the source volume or destination and then try again using. »

    So I ran chkdsk/r, and this program is a bad sector on the hard drive of my computer and fixed the error.  It took about an hour to run the program.  Now, the image of the system and the backup of data file work again.

    So I think that the main cause of error (0x8078012D) is deborahgarbe of i/o error (0x8007045D).  So if you get the first error code you can search for fixes for the second error code fix the root cause.

  • "Cannot run the script at line 1. File or folder does not exist. »

    Whenever I have start AfterEffects, I get an error as he is looking to find my recent projects.  The error is as follows: "unable to run the script at line 1. File or folder does not exist. "I haven't changed the location in one of my project files.  It's the same external drives that I use for months.  When I click on OK the same window opens several times and then finally the historic window opens completely blank and empty.  I am able to reopen projects however since the RECENT PROJECTS drop in the top bar.  It is a very strange and disturbing behavior.  In addition, I always use 13.7.2 because when I go to update it is impossible to connect and gives me this error.  I sat with Adobe support for an hour today, and we couldn't understand.  As I am in the middle of major projects, I decided to not update, but this error at startup is very worrying.  Someone has an idea of what could go wrong or how I can fix this?

    Thank you very much for your time.

    Ok!  Just got a response and an Adobe technical support solution.  The problem is that there is a problem with these versions of sequels (and I found the same problem in first to my horror this morning as well!) and the last couple Mac OSs.  The solution is to close the window "library".  It is then normally.  Apparently they fixed in the last update, but I found the same problem on my second computer, which has been updated.  Anyway, if anyone has this problem, close your cc library window.  Voila.

  • How to backup a Windows 7 Machine to a network attached drive (WD Worldbook) - using the Windows backup utility?

    When I use the tool, it lists only a DVD player in backup option, it does not find the network drive (and the tool does not seem to give you an option to search for manually - just has a refresh button). Any help would be great.

    ISTR that you have to buy Windows 7 Ultimate or above for the backup to a network share using the installed backup program.  The series Windows 7 Home won't make backups on a network.

  • Cannot remove the Mega-Backup-get error message

    When you try to remove MegaBackup I get message "Cannot open the application"MegaBackup"because it may be damaged or incomplete."

    "MegaBackup" is an application of unworthy of trust-storage cloud or perhaps real malware. I have not tried to make this distinction. To remove it, please start back up all the data (not with the MegaBackup himself, of course). Then take the steps below.

    1 Select the elements of the connection tab in the users pane and groups of system preferences. Remove all elements with a name starting in 'MegaBackup '.

    2 log off or restart the computer.

    3. slide the MegaBackup application in the Applications to the trash and empty folder.

    Note that you cannot delete any application trying to drag its icon from the LaunchPad or the Dock. You must open the Applications folder in the Finder.

    You may have installed ad-injection with MegaBackup malware. If you don't see unaccustomed pop-up in a web browser, ask for additional instructions.

  • Error message: file already exists - crush or save under?

    When I try to open the .cp file I had already worked on today I now get the following messages series:

    1 C:\Documents and settings/vsutherl/My Documents\My Captivate Projects\game\game2.cp already exists.
    You want to overwrite the file or save it to a new file?

    When I select "Overwrite" or a file save as, I get the following in response message:

    Adobe Captivate cannot open 'game2.cp' because it is not a type of supported file or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an attachment to e-mail and has not been correctly decoded).

    This started happening after I tried to click on the game2.exe file to review the project in its final form (autonomous), but click on the file .cp by mistake, which was already open.

    Now, all four of the projects (which are clones of each other with simple text for each project edits) receive the same error message. I can longer open all source files (.cp) to make additional changes. This represents * weeks * to work and I can't start from scratch to rebuild all four projects - once again. I had many problems with these projects (by messages before here).

    Other projects (totally separate and apart from these 4) open correctly. However, when corrupt game2.cpgot he caused all other files gameX.cp to receive the same error message. resulting no not a single file is corrupt but all 4 even though the problem that was initially detected was then an attempt to (re) open game3.cp (although already open).

    How to overcome this type of file corruption? I use Windows 2000 and Captivate 3.

    Help and thanks!

    Vince

    I found the reason of the error (he says with a bit of complications). My hard drive full after copying game1 to create game2; Game3 and game4. My pc is a corporate pc standard-issue with only a 4 GB drive (although I do graphic and web development), causing the hard drive fills up quickly. Once I deleted some files from my hard drive I was indeed able to open each of the files gameX.cp. And while I understand why I would get an error message 'file corrupted' I wish that I had received a 'no space available' message instead. It would have saved a lot of time, trouble and effort (not to mention the frustration). I thank all of you for your quick response to my original post, it is really appreciated! Vince
