This was followed by a 521 Event from Windows Backup telling you that the Backup operation failed.
The hint was already in the event details from the VSS error:
ConvertStringSidToSid(S-1-5-21-2828234547-00000000000-1509355905-1125.巴克)
Can you spot the SID with the BAK extension at the end?
Looked at the ProfileList a regkey on that machine.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileListAnd here it is:
Followed KB947215 and ultimately removed the Profile with the BAK extension and started another Windows SystemState Backup, which succeeded without any errors.
