ISSUE - Server 2022 b20234 - Configure Volume Shadow Copy is missing in context menu on ReFS volumes
Repro:
open Windows explorer
right click on an NTFS formatted drive
vs right click on an ReFS formatted drive
NTFS volume
ReFS volume
This entry is missing for ReFS formatted volumes. VSS is configurable on ReFS volumes
expected behaviour: the entry should be added to the context menu to launch VSSUIRUN.exe
Affected builds:
Server 2012 and later, Server LTSC / SAC including Server 2022
reference:
Shadow copies tab is missing from ReFS on Windows Server 2012 (microsoft.com)
VSS Schattenkopien mit ReFS Volumes (microsoft.com)
- Joachim_OtahalIron ContributorOut of curiosity: Only the menu entry is missing, but when started from another drive (or directly via vssuirun.exe) you can activate it and shadowcopy works as expected?

Thanks, I've encountered this multiple times before and always forget to report it.
- Since there is no official response yet, wonder if this is triaged and has a chance to be fixed in 2022 LTSC.

Leider hat MS immer noch nicht ragiert und es ist nur noch der Hinweis auf die Vorgängerversion verfügbar.
