System Restore not working [JSF]

Default System Restore not working [JSF]

When I run the system restore and choose a restore point, the system starts
the restore; and then after the reboot, I get the message that the restore
did not complete, no changes were made.

How can I resolve this? Any help is greatly appreciated

Make sure that prior to running system restore that your AV software isn't
also running, if you have Norton it's also recommended that you turn off the
protection for the Norton product too. I had the same problem & doing this
rectified it.

It means the restore data is corrupt so you may as well delete it and create
a new restore point. If you need to restore, you must select an earlier
restore point.(Find one that works)

Bad info. Corruption is just one of many reasons for System Restore errors.
Deleting restore points is the last thing that should be done.

Joseph

What are your anti-virus and anti-spyware arrangements? What firewall
are you using?

Is System Restore monitoring more thane partition / drive. It should
only be monitoring your Windows partition.

Hope this helps.

If that's the case shut down all virus programs, use Windows firewall only
and retry.

With some AVs (eg Kaspersky) shutting it down still won't allow System
Restore to operate - you have to specifically disable the self defence

Which is trash? System Restore or the security software? Why are some
security software providers incapable of providing software that does
not interfere with the proper running of the operating system?
