Windows Backup and Restore Error

[goreds13]

So I just bought a brand new Lenovo ideapad Y700 (it's less than a week old) and I have no idea why I'm getting this error as I've barely done anything to the computer. Anyway, any help fixing this would be much appreciated! I'm running Windows 10 and if there's anything else you need to know, I can provide that info too.

After trying Anannya's suggestion from here (see attachment), I'm not getting the above error anymore, but a new one (woohoo!):

I have the same issue.

I have met the problem too, and finally I used another backup software to do a schedule automatic backup in Windows 10 successfully.

There are multiple ways to bypass this error and complete the backup and restore process. Here are the detailed steps.

• First of all, disable any Third-party Antivirus software and firewall before starting the backup process. Check if the problem is solved after Disabling the Anti-virus software.

• If the First solution is not working for you, then do the manual Disk Cleanup. Don't forget to delete the unnecessary files during the Disk Cleanup Process. Now, check again if the Problem is solved after the Disk Cleanup. Procedure to perform Disk Cleanup ( How to Run Disk Cleanup on a Windows 7 Computer ) If not, then proceed to the next solution.

• Now, Use the Disk Defragmentation feature. The Disk Defragmentation tool worked for me on my Acer Laptop. Please perform a Disk Defragmentation on System Partition (Usually, C:/ Drive). Here is the procedure to Perform a Disk Defragmentation. ( What is Defrag: How to Defragment a Hard Drive in Windows 10 Link Removed)

• Boot your Computer into Safe Mode and then try to Backup or Restore. In most of the cases, the Safe Mode of Windows solves the problem. Procedure to Boot into Safe Mode in Windows ( Link Removed )
