VSS_E_OBJECT_NOT_FOUND
VSS_E_OBJECT_NOT_FOUND means that the object supplied to a VSS operation could not be located. With AddToSnapshotSet, for example, the volume or remote file share name does not identify an existing supported object.
How to investigate for VSS_E_OBJECT_NOT_FOUND
- Verify the volume, share, snapshot, or provider identifier passed to the API.
- Use VSS administration tools to list available providers, writers, and shadow copies.
- For remote shares, confirm the required UNC naming format and that the resource is still online.
Microsoft: AddToSnapshotSet return values
Diagnostic interpretation
This result has the HRESULT value 0x80042308. AllStat records the condition as “The specified object was not found.”.
Evidence to capture
- Capture any IErrorInfo text, activity identifier, event-log entry, and subsystem trace that mentions this result or the vss / object / found operation.
- Preserve the first failure in the call chain; a later HRESULT can describe cleanup rather than the original vss / object / found condition.
