I’ve been struggling with my online backup AltDrive recently. It seemed to continue a backup started a couple of days ago but never getting past the phase of Creating Shadow Copy. When I cancelled the backup process, I was able to start over but still the previous backup continued to hang in the progress window. I tried all sorts of things related to shadow copy but with no avail. I uninstalled the client (keeping settings because I didn’t want to lose backed up data) and installed a fresh version, no change.
