I am running Vista Ultimate x86 and the default setting for the Volume
Shadow Copy service is Manual, Started. I don't have any problems with the
default setting. However, if you wish to change it click on the Start orb
and type Services. Click on Services at the top of the list, click on Allow
when you get the UAC prompt and you will be in Services.
Scroll down to Volume Shadow Copy, right click on it and select
Properties. In the Volume Shadow Copy Properties window, "Startup type"
dropdown list you can select Automatic (Delayed Start). This will start the
service after your computer has finished booting. If you select Automatic it
will start during the boot process, which is unnecessary and can cause an
additional delay in your startup time.
Once you have chosen Automatic (Delayed Start) you need to click on
Apply. If the service shows that it is stopped you then need to click on the
Start button, under "Service status" and then click on Apply. Once you have
done this you can click on OK and you are done. Close the Services window.
