Are you using AOFO in your job? If so, turn it off and see if this works.

Thanks!

If you ever ran a Hyper-V backup job with the faster method selected then the snapshot will be retained and you have to

1) switch your BE configuration back to the standard method

2) After completing 1, use Powershell commands from Microsoft to remove the Hyper-V snapshot.

 

if you have never run a faster method hyper-V backup and have a snapshot stuck then you should probably speak to Microsoft

Do you set to use "faster method" for incremental backup? Are you using incremental?

 

Please refer to the following tech note that it's normal when you are using faster method.
