I have a newly installed Windows 2012 server and would like to take a backup using Windows Server Backup. Unfortunately, the system returns the following error (see below).
I did some research and there was talk about the "hidden" partition not having enough free space. I checked and the hidden partition, which is 500 MB with 256 MB free. The main drive (C:) has 861 GB free. It seems like there is plenty of free space.
Do you have any information on this error? Thanks in advance.
