How to protect a restore point are overwritten?

I would like a solution would work her for all the versions of XP and 7. Maybe I could save a restore point to protect to be replaced.

When I solved the problem 'my computer takes too long to start', I need some real numbers to see the before and after...

Then I can charge $1 per second for every second that I take off your startup (up to a maximum of $100) time.  I need front and after hours to collect the loot.  There is of course no charge if your startup time increases.    They take generally only a few minutes of effort on some systems, and most of this time is waiting for reboot cycles.  It is a BIG scam, let me tell you.

I don't have to copy/paste of notes on what you want to do, but here's what I think...

RPs are stored in the System Volume Information folder that is hidden and inaccessible (for your protection, of course), unless make you it accessible.

See this article:
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/309531

I prefer the command CACLS (ACL = Access Control List), so on my system, to enter the folder IVR, start, run or I would like to a command prompt window, enter this command:

Cacls "C:\System Volume Information" / e/p Jose: F
   
That should all be on one line with the quotes (since it contains spaces), press ENTER.
   
Now, Jose navigates carefully all the stuff in the SVI folder.
   
To restore it as it was before, enter the following command:
   
Cacls "C:\System Volume Information" /E /R Jose

When you enter the SVI folder, there is another folder called:

_RESTORE (a few letters and numbers)

Under these are records of Nnpr where each of them is a Restore Point.  Sort Nnpr records by date, and you can see them and compare to the SRP appears available in the system restore calendar.

Manually create a new PR and watch what is happening in the SVI folder list when a new RP is created in order to see how it works.

Look into the new folder Nnpr and it's the Restore Point.  Some RPs may be traumatic, some might be small - it depends on what the RP's savings since the last PR was created.

Under each folder Nnpr is a snapshot folder that has the XP registry at the time the RP was made (it's good to know for any problem).

You can look around it there and you'll see things that might look familiar... and text files, you can watch...  I don't think I know what all the files are fine, but it may not be important for what you're trying to do.

I think that if get you things you like, turn off SR and enable it (that will remove all current/former SPP) and look in the SVI folder and you should have zero RPs.

Then manually create a new RP, you will have a new Restore Point in your calendar of SR and a new Nnpr under SVI folder for this moment.  I don't think that the departure of RP RP01 folder names, healrp02, etc...

I'm not sure all the other files there in the SVI to do, but if I wanted to do what you want to do, I'll start with no RPs, do a RP manually and then copy the entire folder IVR on a CD-ROM or other course (perhaps an external drive).

In the future when you are ready to go back, turn off the system restore and solve it (to erase all old PHI) and then replace the SVI folder on the hard drive with the one on the CD.

You may need to remove the SVI folder, but when you restart, a new is created automatically even if SR is disabled.  This SVI folder empty is more annoying for some people, but you can make it work as you want...  ($25 extra for costs of removal trouble).

To replace the SVI folder, you may need to work in Mode without failure or the XP Recovery Console, but you can replace the entire SVI folder if you want.

It may take a little effort to replace the SVI folder, but you can do it.

Then restart and choose to restore your computer to an earlier time.  I think there is just a single RP in the calendar and it's one that you copied from the CD.  I could be wrong on this part.

This concept could be complicated or messy or worse if you have SR followed two volumes (like your drive C and D), you'll have then two SVI files.

It is not supposed me have followed anyway SR things on any volume as the boot volume (usually C), so usually the turn off on the secondary volumes except in cases where I'm not sure at 100%, it is not necessary.

If you choose to restore to the RP only and it works that partially for some reason, you have a big mess and XP could not boot at all and it can be difficult/impossible to fix, or the system restore may not work and XP will just complain that your effort of system restore has nothing.

I have not tried so I'm not sure that it will work, but since you have the things you need to do a repair or reinstallation if you must... that can happen (a reinstall from scratch).  And you're probably pretty well at this party now.

CCleaner is a way to also delete the individual RPs (and other maintenance that people like tools), but if I had to do your thing, I'd do it the way I described with the CD - and it may not work well or at all and might take some practice.  Then you can write an article about it.

    ·         You have Dual boot for installation on your system?

    If you have a Dual Boot with Windows XP / Windows 2000 then this problem can occur because the restore point does not record if you dual-boot Windows 7 and Windows XP/Windows 2000 installed on the same system.

  • All my system restore points are gone, can I get them back? They were here before, I did a restore earlier in the day.

    I have read through many of the issues with my problem similar but found no answers I thought applied to my question.  I use Vista Home Basic and it came on laptop. He began to get a blue screen, the other week that close... I signed on and it allows me to open my Cricket to go online and allows me to open IE and go online - I was for a few hours.  With all the previous still running I went to open AOL and the blue screen appeared again. I started to play and it seems that AOL is the reason.  System Restore fixed.  I could sign and use Cricket, IE and even AOL.  A few weeks later now I am online using IE and I had saved a few sites to my bookmark on the google toolbar.  I kept all the programs like I always do and clicked on AOL and of course, a blue screen and shut down.  I thought I'd make system restore as before... He's fine, but I noticed that when I went to IE my google toolbar was gone and I have several sites needed bookmarks so I played with the tools and disabled my toolbar and it permits etc. nothing helped so I defeated the system restore and signed for IE and google toolbar is back to normal but now AOL is causing the blue screen new.  I decided to try, then uninstall the google toolbar and simply re-install everything when I do a restore to get AOL works or to uninstall AOL and reinstall it again. I opened the system restore and that's when it opened and said there are no restore points on my system and take care to create a manual.  I'm afraid that if I do just that I lose the ability to restore my restore points, if there is a way (which means yes, you can restore the system restore points, but you must do before anything else, as if I created an it would ruin my chance to restore my 'old'?).  In any case, of course, I must have the computer checked as to why the blue screen is arise every few weeks but so far here, I want to do system restore to fix at the moment.  What can I do to get my restore points back?  Thanks in advance!

    Hi Diana,

    Thank you for answering... that's why I'm confused, I know not that restore points deleted as space fills up and also if you turn off your protection system but neither one of these grounds was the case.  I had a lot of space (from the previous use of sys restore, I see how many restore points can accumulate before deletion and it was not nearly that many) and protection of my system is on?  It just happened without reason that's why I was hoping that I could get back them due to abnormal circumstances.  I do not!  I have uninstall AOL completely and when I reinstalled it everything went well up to what he did and he opened up to find my connection type and of course, the blue screen appeared and stop.  Obviously, AOL, but I thought that a new facility would set as I had AOL since I was the new laptop.  I thought that maybe a file was corrupted or something and uninstall and reinstall would work but no luck.  I was going to do a complete reinstallation of my laptop all but before I do, I noticed I never had disks when I bought it, everything was installed (Windows Vista), but they do not include a disc of resettlement.  I don't know if this is how they do it now, or if mine was incomplete, so I guess I'll put hands on MS supports.  Thanks again!

  • Dates of the Restore Points are one month in advance

    For reasons I don't understand, the date of the day on my computer was changed to one month before the effective date, for example from May 13 to June 13, 2013. As a specialist, I kept getting messages that my Microsoft Security Essentials were outdated. Later, I discovered that all the restore points created after May 13 are dated June 13. I corrected the date and have updated Security Essentials and things are back to normal, but I have several restore points, a month in advance. Restore recent points are correctly dated now, but what can I do on these wrong, before the restore points. Thank you.

    If the pc works fine, then 2 options:

    1 turn off the system restore, which will remove all items, reboot, restart System Restore, and a system checkpoint will be created.

    2. go to disk cleanup, use the tab options, System Restore, cleanup, it will erase everything but the last system restore points.

  • How can I remove restore points created daily by Software Distribution Service 3.0?

    Are not only all these points using the space on my hard drive to restore?

    A better program of disk cleanup is cCleaner. Delete System Restore points may be important if you have little free disk space. The ability to delete them is one of the tools options. You can selectively remove those created in less important moments.

    cCleaner also comes with a registry tool. Do not use this tool as any registry cleaner could lead to the creation of very difficult to resolve system errors.

  • Normaliz.dll was not found, Explorer does not 'Class not registered', and the restore points are gone

    I left the room for about 20 min then when I came back I got this error

    QPService.exe - Unable to locate component
    This Application has failed to start because Normaliz.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix the problem.

    Then I restarted and had the same problem.  If I click 'OK' and then I get "Quickplay Resident Program has stopped working," then the error box changes the same thing but for avast and when I click on it I get "avast!" Antivirus has stopped working. "Click again and"GrooveMonitor utility has stopped working ". That's about 10 programs until next stop errors.

    The Explorer is also not work, my computer, folders, windows update, and many many other programs won't open.  Whatever this either in the Explorer tells me 'class not registered '.

    What I tried:

    • System restore - but it says that I have no restore points.  I used to have dozens, I did a lot of myself, and I don't know where they went
    • I tried to download Normaliz.dll, but when I tried to extract it to System32 (following the instructions I found on the web) he's not here, he gets another error.  So I put it on the desktop but then realized that I can't move it anywhere because I can't pull the top of my work or the Explorer.  I also tried to go into the Task Manager and do 'New task', but if I type anything this either in or click on 'Browse' then I get the same error on Normaliz.dll and then Manager tasks becomes inadmissible and accidents.
    • I tried to go into safe mode and Explorer still does not work, "New task" in the Manager tasks still does not work and I still do not have restore points
    • I tried a few other recovery tools before start and none of them has contributed to

    A lot of what I've tried has been recommended by other people when I did some research on google, but most people seem to have this problem because of IE, but I don't use IE and haven't for months.  Also solutions that seem to work for them have not worked for me.  I can't understand what caused it because I have not downloaded anything recently and it just happened when I left the computer and came back later.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated, I don't really want to destroy everything and reload windows.

    This looks like a general Windows failure since all kinds of independent programs stopped working. I would like to begin the troubleshooting process by testing your hardware from the hard drive and RAM. The machine can also be overheating. You can do it yourself or take the machine to a local professional reputable (not a type of BigComputerStore/GeekSquad of the place).
