Vssadmin and Volume Shadow Copies
This article is intended for Windows advanced users that would like to know more about the Vssadmin command-line tool. With vssadmin you can set and view Volume Shadow Copy parameters from a single location. In addition, the list options in vssadmin are a source of valuable info that is not available elsewhere in the Windows GUI. I have prepared a small application called Volume Shadow Copy Info that displays the basic stuff. Remember to run this utility with elevated administrator privileges.
