I was having a problem with a surface which I was trying to run Active Backup for Business to do a bare metal backup of the C drive to a Synology NAS box. It kept failing with an error code 8004230f. Researching that error, I found some info that it could be a conflict with other backup software, but there was no other backup software installed on the box (ever).
The event viewer showed some errors for VSS (Volume Shadow Copy) which were found under the Event Viewer > Windows Logs > Application and had a source of "VSS". The errors were 22 and 12292. Looking those errors up, I found this which solved the problem - that is, I backed up the registry and then removed the VSS provider key for Hyper-V, rebooted and kicked off a backup (from the Synology) which is now running without errors.
