However, the above errors occur in one of my Windows 10 computers where none of the two imaging tools are installed.<\/p>\n<p>The oldest VSS errors (ID: 8193 and 13) date back to May 22, 2019 10:43:47 AM &#8212; i.e., <a href=\"https:\/\/www.winhelponline.com\/blog\/find-windows-installation-date-time\/\">within hours<\/a> after I <a href=\"http:\/\/Windows 10 Build\/Version Upgrade History\">upgraded to v1903<\/a>.

However, it&#8217;s unclear what is invoking VSS during the shutdown. I plan to run a boot trace in one of the systems to see if I can find anything. Another thing some users observed is that the automatic Restore Point creation does not work, but creating restore points manually works. Also, turning off the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.winhelponline.com\/blog\/create-restore-protection-point-rollback-windows\/\">System Restore<\/a> protection feature stopped the VSS errors from appearing in some systems.<\/p>\n<h4>Workaround: Stop the &#8220;CryptSvc&#8221; service manually before shutdown<\/h4>\n<p>I can confirm that the following workaround of stopping Cryptographic Services manually before shutdown prevents the VSS errors from appearing.
