How to force logout of all users on VSS?


VSS is resuming it's sabotage of my repository again. The repair command won't let me repair, the lock VSS doesn't seem to affect currently logged in users-- and it isn't a user, its claiming the only person logged in is admin (via the VSS admin tool!) and I have already closed all instances of the VSS admin tool and client.


Solution

  • In computer management, close all the sessions and open files. It's drastic, but that is the only way I found to fix it. You also might want to close the share temporarily.
