Hello team
OS: Wins2012 R2 datacenter
Commvault Client version: V11/SP25.32
Windows file system on the client indexing version : 2
installed date: Apr/2018
I just came across an issue where the ‘Use VSS’ option is grayed out from general tab of subclient properties and that causes backup failed on the locked files.
I think uninstall/reinstall file system agent will work, and not sure why VSS option doesn’t active

I tried the action plan that you recommended
But when re-enable the option “Track Access Time”, it reverts to ‘’Use VSS for all files’. looks like ‘For all files ’is the default option whenever enable “Track Access Time”.
https://documentation.commvault.com/11.23/expert/25895_track_last_access_time.html
When view failed items, it shows 20more files failed to backup as it’s being used by another process :
[K:\CAT_Team_RMS\XXXX\NBData\Internal Support\Global Tech Risk\3. International\2022.05.05_XXX\2022.06.22_AP_XXX\XXX for XXX.docx] [0x20 32] The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.
Doc stated *Use VSS for all files option will be used once Track access time option is enabled*
why it can’t backup the locked files and is there any additional setting we can use to allow Commvault backing up the locked files.
@DanC - Try unchecking “Track Access Time” and then change the VSS setting for locked files only or as needed. Once you make the change then re-enable “Track Access Time”

Just wondering if this an expected behavior - locked file will not get backed up when ‘Track Access Time’ enabled or this is something Commvault development team need to look into ?
