  • 1.  vCenter Converter - Error Code: 2147754766 (0x8004230E).

    Hi,

    I am trying to create a virtual image of my Alienware laptop however I am getting the following error:

    FAILED: Unable to create a VSS snapshot of the source volume(s). Error code: 2147754766 (0x8004230E).

    I have done the usual google for this error and all the results state it could be due to volumes which are FAT, however I can confirm after checking Disk Management that non of my volumes are FAT, they're all NTFS. My OS is Windows 7 Home Premium 64-Bit.

    Any help would be much appreciated!!

    Thank you,

    Andy

    Right, it would seem that an application named Cloudfogger (which encrypts cloud storage data) was causing the problem.

    When I checked the source details it looked as though the application created itself a tiny 100MB FAT partition. I simply stopped the app from running and hey presto! it works!
