• Error - the file name, directory name or volume label syntax is incorrect. "(0x8007007B), when you exit the system restore.

  Original title: System Restore problems

  Hello, I am running Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit classic mode.  My system specs are listed under my signature.

  Before installing a program today, I went to create a system restore point.  In system properties > System Protection, I see that in the Protection settings > disks available there are two instances of the C: drive tagged like this:

  HDD0 (C :) (System) Protection on (selected)
  HDD0 (C :) (Missing) Protection on

  This is probably due to having recently replaced my C: drive with a disk larger to help to restore from a System Image backup.  The installation seems to succeed.  (I use now!)

  Note: other readers in Protection settings are showing off Protection.

  When I clicked on "Set up" in system properties > System Protection, I have seen that in the restoration of settings, the box "Turn off active Protection" has been selected.  I put the option button "restore system settings and previous versions of files.  In space, the slider was set to 0.  I put it to 1% (857,54 MB).

  When I tried to leave the system of Protection for the dialog to HDD0 (c) I got this error:

  There was an unexpected error in the property page:
  The file name, directory name or volume label syntax is incorrect.  (0x8007007B)
  Close the property page and try again.

  I deleted all restore points, then created a new restore point.  Current usage shows now 29,48 MB.  I still get the error when I try to the OK from the dialog box.  When I click on the system restore and start the Restore Wizard that I can see the restore point, I just created.

  Any help to banish the fake player available and messages will be appreciated greatly.

• Must system image file be in the same place, that it was created for Windows 7 to detect when you perform the system restore?

  When you restore system files and settings from a system image, the WindowsImageBackup folder must be in the location that it was created?

  -For example -.

  I create an image system on an external HARD drive, then later I want to do a restore of the system from this image, the WindowsImageBackup folder must be in the same place, it was created (in this example, the root of the external HARD disk) for Windows 7 to detect?

  Hi Keylonta,

  Yes, it should be in the same hard disk and if it is not listed in the system restore point it is not possible to locate or detect the folder "WindowsImageBackup.

  Hope the helps of information.

  Let us know if you need help with Windows related issues. We will be happy to help you.

• Impossible to install the windows update and perform the system restore

  Original title: what restore systerm causing failure/Vista

  Windows update fails with a few updates, tried to restore the back before I loaded the system machanic - fails

  Hello

  1. What is the description which are impossible to install updates?

  2. What is the message exact error do you get when you try to install updates?

  3. you get any error message while you perform the system restore?

  I suggest you to follow the steps mentioned below and check if it helps:

  Method 1: Reset components from Windows Update from the link of the suite, which would help you to install the updates of windows. http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/971058

  Method 2:

  If the problem persists, then try to put your computer in a clean boot state, and then try to install the update to windows.

  By setting your boot system minimum state helps determine if third-party applications or startup items are causing the problem.

  How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or Windows 7:
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

   

  Note: After the boot minimum troubleshooting step, follow step 7 in the link provided to return the computer to a Normal startup mode.

  Method 3: Manually try to install updates from the Microsoft Download Center.

  d. When you are prompted, click open to install the update.

  Method 4: You can also try to perform the system restore , safe mode and check if the same problem occurs.

  Important: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you do not disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network during the time that your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

• I restored the system to today to recover photos from my camera, I downloaded and the system restore hase not put back them in my photo gallery - why?

  I restored my system to today to get some photos, but the file did not appear - how recover them - I didn't do a back-up

  Hello

  "I restored the system to today."

  What do you mean by that?

  You use the system restore to put the settings of the computer to an earlier Date, doesn't not to hand over to today.

  System restore only "puts away" remove photos.

  It has nothing to do with the data files.

  And if you mean the system recovery to factory (like new) settings, which erases the hard drive clean of everything.

  Regardless of how you spent, try this free program to recover:

  Thank you

  Please completely read this broad message about restoring the system and begin by the two scans mentioned in the last part:
  You are a Service Pack behind (you should be on SP3).
  Have you ever used the system successfully restore in the past?
  Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Symantec, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, MSE, Panda, Trend Micro, CA, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, Comodo, etc..
  What is the issue that you are experiencing that you think that the system restore will be remedied (or you are just convenient)?
  Some tools Anti Virus 'protect' your system so that they will not restore the system work properly.
  For example, if you use Norton/Symantec products, you will see a message like this:
  Restoration incomplete. Your computer cannot be restored...
  It is also a popular Symantec problem (well, I'll be polite and call an "undocumented feature"...), they wrote an article about it:
  http://Service1.Symantec.com/support/sharedtech.nsf/pfdocs/2005113009323013
  According to what you use for malware protection, you may need to disable the product temporarily, do the system restore and then turn the products light up again when the system restore is complete.
  Sometimes you need start your system in Mode safe and so that your protection programs are not running, and then do the system restore.  Tips from Microsoft in some of their articles that if the system restore does not restore your computer, start in Safe Mode, and then run the system restore.  It works for some configurations.
  System Restore is sometimes so afflicted or Restore Points are suspicious, the best solution is to reinstall your system restore.  This will remove the old Restore Points, but sometimes it's the only way to fix a broken system restore.  You don't have to reinstall XP, only the part of system restore.
  That can leave you with your problem of unspecified origin that you hope the system restore will fix (using a system restore is not equivalent to 'fix' the problem though).
  Give these ideas some consideration if they apply to you.
  Sometimes malicious will afflict your system restore to prevent you to find and remove malware.  It would much rather you trick into thinking that you need to repair or reinstall your XP when it is not necessary.
  No matter what you use for protection against malware, I do so and then only begin to solve any problems:
  Download, install, update and do a full scan with these free malware detection programs can solve any problems:
  Malwarebytes (MMFA): http://malwarebytes.org/
  SUPERAntiSpyware: (SAS): http://www.superantispyware.com/
  It can be uninstalled later if you wish.
  The scans by operating clean, reboot, test and we can fix any other issues.

  Do, or do not. There is no test.

  I need YOUR voice and the points for helpful answers and propose responses. I'm saving for a pony!

• Cannot use the system restore

  When I tried to do a restore of the system after a software installation failed I got the message "system restore is disabled. You want to turn on? "I clicked the Yes button and then got a screen display that she couldn't be turned on because"system restore has been disabled by group policy. When I searched for how to change group policy, they told me to go to start, run and type gpedit.msc. When I tried that I got an error that gpedit.msc does not exist on my machine. Can someone tell me please how to restore the system restore. I am running an old Vaio with XP, but it still works very well this problem.

  Also, I tried it while logged in as an administrator, it is not part of the problem. I do not have a system restore disk because it did not come with the machine and I forgot to make one, but I have a disk of Windows XP with Service Pack 2. Do I have to re - format the entire disk to fix this? I use a sturdy old Sony Vaio, which works very well except for this problem. Any advice would be appreciated.

  How did you delete the system restore?

  I think you have bad things on your computer (or you did at some point).

  If you have XP Home Edition, you have no Group Policy Editor (gpedit.msc), but the error message that you declare (if it's like my examples), indicates that group policy has been changed, so that something has changed.

  Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Symantec, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, MSE, Panda, Trend Micro, CA, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, Comodo, etc..

  Perhaps GoBack is it for you to prevent you from using SR then you would be forced to use use GoBack instead and I do not wish to install GoBack to find out.

  Malware "break" things that he knows that you will use to try to get rid of it... like the Task Manager, the restoration of the system, the registry editor, etc.

  The malware is happiest when she can trick you into thinking you need to do a repair installation, use a Restore Point or even a complete reinstall when none of those things are needed that outsmart you, and then got rid of with MBAM and SAS.

  AV tools will not often catch these things because they can not tell if policies have been disabled by malware or if you made on purpose, so just leave them.   MBAM will point out a few of them as suspect and give you the opportunity to correct them if you wish.

  The malware may also know you have XP Home and adjust policies that he thinks that you do not have to be set because you have no Group Policy Editor - This is how he thinks and that's what he does.  He wants that reinstall you XP from scratch.

  First run MBAM and SAS if you want.

  I've done to the top of this edition of registry for you :).  It's an accumulation of things that responds to all things under the sentence "If you see things like...". ».

  If you just want to see if you can get your work of SR and are comfortable editing the registry, you can go here:

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows NT\SystemRestore

  Find and delete this registry key:

  DisableSR

  That's what this line in the file .reg on top:

  [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows NT\SystemRestore]
  "DisableSR" = -.

  He "skins" (removes) politics DisableSR.

  That will solve your problem of immediate SR, but will not any question that you have not yet set.

  Before making any changes to your registry, back up the registry with this free and popular tool:

  http://www.SnapFiles.com/get/ERUNT.html

  But, as I said, if you have in your registry, you have probably other things too.  My regedit will fix all the things I've seen come with the question SR whether or not they have need of fixing.  It does nothing, it will remove anything that might be there (you have at least one).

  Then, you should broaden your horizons AV because what you use dropped and could not protect your system.

  Or, you can wait and see what other people have to say.
