Windows 10: Event log full of VSS errors and System Restore is broken



This has apparently been going on for a long time, but the system shows no external indication of any problems. Nightly backups (Acronis True Image 2021) work, with no errors in the logs.



I've tried all of the solutions suggested here and anywhere else I could think to check.



Here's all the info and evidence I can think of.



Windows 10 Pro v. 2004 Build 19041.508

The C: drive is a factory installed 1TB conventional hard drive with an Intel Optane solid state device.

The D: and E: drives are partitions on a single 1TB hard drive.



VSS services are now set to "Automatic" and are running [Default setting was "manual."]

SFC /scannow shows no problems.

CHKDSK /F of all three drives show no errors.



System Restore setting fails with 0X81000203, and the setting and display fields in the System Protection dialog are all grayed out.



[The volume mentioned in the VSS errors that I've looked at is always the D: drive.]

Numerous VSS 12293 errors in Application event log, like this:
