Thanks, i've registered the ML only today, but googling for the issue didn't help.
I had VSS enabled for no reason actually, there's no need for it. I'll try to disable it and try again. Anyway, it's strange that it ran fine for 2-3 years with no config change, only bacula upgrades and windows' updates, the issue seems to be introduced recently.
