Only a few versions show up in VSS ?

Question

Hi,

We have set up VSS on a Windows 2016 Server. When we attempt to retrieve a deleted file from VSS, we find that there are 2 versions of the folder in VSS.

We just wonder why those in previous days are not shown up. Is there any suggestion ?

Thanks

Hi,

Are there only two shadow copies of the volume? Please navigate to the Shadow Copies tab in the properties of the volume, open settings, check the maximum space size to make sure you have assigned enough disk space. Also check the status of the volume shadow copy task in the task scheduler.

Best Regards,

Ian Xue
