VSS Shadow Copy Problems
in [Windows Performance]

From: Gaetor on 4 May 2006 07:31 yes both are ... I suspect this has something to do with the Com+ subsystem or possibly the .Net framework config, does anyone with more knowledge than me on these subjects have any suggestions on the error message which mentions CLSID {65ee1dba-8ff4-4a58-ac1c-3470ee2f376a} and/or why the swprv.dll fails to register?
