Output of restic version

0.17.2

What backend/service did you use to store the repository?

Windows
Backup to another local drive and S3-compatible like MinIO and Wasabi

Problem description / Steps to reproduce

It seems that the error depands von VSS (Volume Shadow Copy Service).

command line:

restic --limit-upload 1220 --verbose --use-fs-snapshot --compression=max backup C:\Hyper-V\SRV02

Expected behavior

No error.

Actual behavior

The output/llog shows this:

I had no problems with 0.17.1.

I'm using restic since 2021. It works great and stable.
Great job, Keep it up!
