Case # 03956627 - install hangs at "Detecting External Drives"

Post by jkpete »

During Install and after Services are started the process hangs at "Detecting External Drives"
This will just spin for hours with no timeout or failure. If I cancel out of the window and try to configure a backup Job I get an error stating "Failed to parse shadow volumes layout XML........."

I've tried multpile installs and I get the same result. I am able to create the recovery media but I can not configure a backup job because of this.

Your info helped me solve this issue as well, and saved me what would've clearly been a lot more time and frustration trying to figure this out. So thank you for posting!
