Clone failed - Error 0 - Unable to match partition - Drive 2, Start Sector 975749120

What does this mean, I have tried the VSS option which it does nothing to.
I also tried the icacls grant option which nothing changed.  'Access is denied'

Suggestions?

Thanks for posting.

That's not come up before but it references the fact that an operation (either a partition delete or overwrite)  is for a partition that can't be found on the target drive. 

1. Hit the refresh link in the main Window to refresh the current drive layouts.
2. If that doesn't resolve the problem then edit the clone definition to correct the problem by setting up the clone again. .

I tried what you suggested, but maybe I should send a screen shot.  It still ended up the same way.  I will try to get the screen shots of what I am doing, thanks

So, after creating the clone in the way I think it should be one, this is the result.

Thanks for looking at this.

Thanks for getting back. 

From your screen shot we can see that Microsoft Volume Shadow copy Service  (VSS) is failing. 

Can you please post up the end of the VSS log for the clone using copy and paste. Instructions on accessing the log can be found here:

I am running Windows 10.  I will read the KB articles.  Also, I had Acronis installed prior to running Macrium but I uninstalled it using Revo Uninstaller which should remove everything from the disk and registry.  It could still be there somewhere, I will look into it.  I will work on this in a few hours, I am at work just now.  Thanks for your help.

Using Revo is actually a bad idea. 3rd party utilities have no idea what registry changes have been made....

First and easiest thing to try is to take the 'Other Tasks' > 'Fix VSS Problems...' menu option in Macrium Reflect and reboot.

I tried the menu option Fix VSS Problems, it did not work.  Same result.  I will keep looking on the internet.
