How To Start SQLwriter Service

While doing a stability check, i discovered that my SQLWRITER was not
functioning. The system said to restart the service. When I attempt to
restart the service I get the following message:

Windows is unable to start SQL Server VSS Writer service. The message is
"Error 1067: The process terminated unexpectedly".

Any ideas as to what might be wrong?

The properties of the service should tell you what 'dependencies' it has on
other services. One of those may not be running.
