Has anyone else encountered this error list below...
I've only recently started seeing it after updating to the latest build.
I'm unable to mount any of my images because of this image
and I'm hoping someone can shed some light on the issue.
I'm able to backup and restore but not mount and explore any of the images.

Thanks in advance. 👍

Seems another reason to avoid the latest update.

I've come across that once before, although not with reference to Macrium.

According to the search I did on that expression then, it's an Update failure (ie. not Macrium, of course).

It's a while back, but an inplace (Update) Repair did resolve the issue for me. I haven't seen it since then. Perhaps easier to just rollback to KB5063030 ?

Thanks for the feedback Ian, as of yet I've had no positive result.
I will try installing an earlier version of Macrium just to see how it plays out.
I'll keep you in the loop if I have any success. 👍

Is this while booted into Macrium recovery or within Windows.

Here is one suggestion


When you see this error in Macrium Reflect while trying to mount a backup image (e.g. .mrimg), it usually means the Macrium virtual volume driver (used to mount images as virtual drives) is either missing, not loaded, or pointing to a broken path.




✅ Cause​


Macrium's image mounting driver (psmounterex.sys) can't be loaded — likely because it's missing, corrupt, or the registry points to a path that doesn't exist.

Error code 0x80070003 = The system cannot find the path specified — often the path to the driver .sys file.



Step 1: Reinstall the Macrium Image Mounting Driver


  1. Open Macrium Reflect
  2. Go to Other Tasks > Fix VSS Problems
  3. Then also go to: Other Tasks > Re-Deploy Restore > Reinstall Reflect Drivers
