    Hi Singaravelu,Vinoth,IN-Coimbatore, Thanks for your post. These errors mainly related to VSS providers instead of VSS writers. So, on the VM has the vss error, please run command vssadmin list providers to check if there's an error. If a provider is missing from the list of registered providers, try reinstalling it. Also, for such kind of ramdon issues are indeed hard to troubleshoot, especially through forums. For this scenario, I would suggest you open a case with MS for deep troubleshooting, so that MS can collect deep VSS logs for diagnosis. Below is the link to open a case with MS: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/gp/customer-service-phone-numbers If you get any further information, appreciate to feedback. Best Regards, Ian Xue
