I can not access my system restore.

When I click on the system restore, nothing happens. It is not on my Add / Remove programs. What can I do to get it back? Thank you.

System Restore can be run in normal mode or safe mode.

It is not located under the Control Panel Add/Remove programs.

Instead it is located via the button start > all programs > Accessories > system tools.

    Tried to run the system restore, but it will not restore.

    Hey AnnEdelstein,

    Because you can't get the system restore to work, perform a clean boot on your Windows XP system. The guide to that is here. Which follow, and then try again to Outlook. If it works to the minimum, then boot in the boot, analyse the whole system with your Antivirus and other security you have.
    Also make sure you have the drivers for the keyboard. Search for the manufacturing of the keyboard, and they should have the drivers on their support site. I hope this has been helpful!
  • can not get the system restore to work

    tried to get the system restore back to an earlier time. says I need to get rid of the useless programs.did who. I have also some icons for files, tools or downloads

    In addition to what has been mentioned, consider the following:

    First of all, what is the last time that the restoration of the system worked?

    Check your system restore settings:

    1. Click Start
    2. Right click on my computer
    3. Click on Properties.
    4. Click on System Restore
    5. If system restore is enabled, the column status of a player will show surveillance.
    6. If not, you can delete ""disable the system restore on all drives ' and then click on OK to activate "

    Is both as soon as you try to restore to the most recent available? If so, unless you have specific reasons to keep the previous restore points, clean the rest, so that you have the most recent restore point on the left.

    To do this:

    1. run Disk Cleanup

    2. click on more Options

    3. under system restore, click cleaning of

    4. click on OK

    This will free up the space. System restore needs a minimum of 200 MB of space to work.

  • Browser crash, restart on its own, can not do the system restore. Help!

    OK, so I tried EVERYTHING I know how to do, and some things I did research.

    Whenever my computer restarts itself, I get an error message saying that there is a faulty driver.

    I checked my drivers with the audit tool, nothing.

    I uninstalled all unnecessary programs I could find (nothing critical, just programs like Glary Utilities, Acrobat, Flash etc..).

    Eventually I got to a point where everything I did was to get worse, and my computer told me that Windows did not start upward.  I rebooted in safe mode and tried to do a system restore.  Cannot restore point to restore I get an error indicating that the system restore was not successful.  I tried FOUR different restore points.

    I'm at my wits end!

    I don't have my Windows XP cd, or one of the disks with the computer came.  This used to be my computer at work, but let me keep as part of my departure, so all the disks are in the old company.

  • Impossible to access the system restore, getting the error "system restore has been disabled by group policy.

    Recently, I was hit by a virus that, among other problems, he blocked my access to the system restore to clear it.

  • Hall 20: I can't do a system restore to overcome the refusal of the system to accept the password.

    I did a restore to factory on the Pavilion 20. Pressing me F11 has troubleshooting screen and I chose the system restore. All right

    I set up the UserName Admin and the password carefully (but don't think to do a password recovery disk).  I installed a different AntiVirus Norton application, a default value.  So I uninstalled Norton.  It required a reboot to complete uninstallation.

    This is where my problems started.

    Upon restart, the computer will not accept the password!  There is no mistake here.  It was carefully designed and entered in the creation of duing twice.  I even considered perhaps that I soon take my finger on the SHIFT key (twice) then tried many variations of SHIFT or no change for the capitals and even the next character in the password.  I restarted 50 times trying to get just one time and then I would like to choose a new password for connection.

    For the next, I thought I could just do a restore of the system from zero and re - configure again.  But now there is no option for me to use the system recovery.  This option is missing!  I spent many hours on searches of google for similar problems.  It's just not there.  I tried to use F10 and F11 to enter the system recovery.  I get to the menu troubleshooting and it has 3 options: Refresh uoir PC, reset your PC options and advanced.
    Clicking on advanced options gives me the system restore (a restore point (doesn't) usung) System Image recovery, startup repair, command prompt and UEFI firmware settings.

    I'm positn gthis in the hope that I can do a system recovery to the command prompt.  Is this possible?  If this is not the case, how can I do a system restore when the OPtion is not avaiiable?

    My question is: a complete system recovery was done, why it is no longer possible to

    Hello Newton51

    It will display the number of full model of the computer.

    I don't know what happened on your system but when you do the reset of the system, don't go not advanced.

    You should be able to click on reset your PC. That will erase the C: partition and reinstall Windows.

    When its finished, and you get to the part where it asks you to create a password for the user, LEAVE BLANK.

    Restart to make sure you can connect without using a password.

    IF you succeed at this stage, create your HP Recovery Media via the HP Support Assistant.

    If you enter an impasse once again, recovery media will wipe the drive and reinstall everything, including the recovery partition.

    NOTE: HP will allow you to record only one copy of the recovery media, so not to interrupt the process when you start.

    Now remove Norton and restart.

    Install this that never new you want security.

    When you're done, go to your user profile and carefully create your word password but do not close yet.

    Create the key to reset password on a USB key.

    Now restart and test your password.

    You have a USB reset if it doesn't.

    ----------------------------------------------------------

    If you are not able, or do not succeed to reset the PC, you have two options. Use the MS media creation tool to create recovery media (from another computer).

    Then, reinstall Windows 8.1 and download your HP drivers and install them.

    Or

    Order directly the appropriate recovery of the HP Support media.

    Contact HP worldwide | HP® official site

    Choose the country you are. Choose Help, then to the House.
    Enter the full product number and follow the prompts to contact Support.

    Chat with an agent will ensure that you get the appropriate recovery media.

    Hope that helps.
