VSS_E_CANNOT_REVERT_DISKID

VSS_E_CANNOT_REVERT_DISKID VSS could not set the intended MBR signature or GPT identifier on one or more disks during a revert or restore. Disk identity conflicts or write restrictions must be resolved first.

What to check

Inspect Application events for the disk identity that could not be restored.
Check for an existing disk with the same signature or GPT ID, read-only state, offline status, or storage protection that prevents the write.
Make identifier changes only in a controlled recovery procedure; disk identity changes can affect boot, mount, and cluster configuration.
