I received the error message: 0x0000ffff after running the system restore

Original title: 0x0000ffff

has run the system restore and got this error code. How should I do?

Hello

could a. you give the error message as well?
b. are you try to create a system restore point or restore the computer to a previous state?

c. Why do you try to restore the computer to a previous state?

We can try the following methods and check.

Method 1.
Disable the security software and then try to run the system restore and verify.

Method 2.

Let us run restore the system from the command prompt and check. Follow the steps described in the article below to get there.

Start the restore of the system from a command prompt
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/start-System-Restore-from-a-command-prompt

Method 3.

I also advise to use the boot minimum troubleshooting to find the conflicting program.

  • How to change group policy for the system restore will create restore point

    I recently installed an SSD with windows 7, it's the default OS and hard drive on a system dual boot. I also have my old HHD with windows vista home premium. I had problems using the restore of the system with the SSD drive and read on a forum that the restoration of the system causes problems when it is used on an SSD. I have disable restoring the system to the SSD, but still he had checked to allow restoration on the vista disk and a 500 GB drive, I have use for storage.

    I managed to create a restore point when you are using windows 7 OS, but when I used my vista drive, and wanted to create additional restore points for two HHD disks, it does not allow the creation of restore points by group policy settings. I regularly create restore for the SSD disk and have created one for the HHD Vista since the system restore does not create additional restore points now.

    How can I change my group policy settings to enable restore points to create the disk under Vista. I don't remember changing anything that might have caused it, is there a chance that a horse of Trojan or virus caused this? I have Webroot antivirus and currently aired Kaspersky Anti-virus on Vista drive. I also ran the Microsoft safety scanner in safe mode and normal startup mode, none of the virus scanners have found problems, so I'm pretty sure I don't have a Trojan or a virus.

    To the point, how to make appropriate changes to allow the restoration of the system to work for my two HHD disks.  Better yet is there a way to restore completely all original windows default system settings without having to do a clean reinstall.

    You can provide any help would be greatly appreciated

    2. go to the following branch: Computer Configuration | Administrative templates | System | System restore

    Hi Girish,

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    According to the description of the problem, it seems that you are having problems with the game Age Of Empires II, you receive an error message "AppCrash.exe". I'll help you fix the problem.

    (1) what version of the game is installed on your computer?

    (2) did the problem started recently?

    (3) have you made changes on the computer before this problem?

    Step 1: Let me inform you that the game is not compatible with Windows 7.

    You can check the link below:

    http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/compatibility/win7/CompatCenter/ProductViewerWithDefaultFilters?TempOsid=win7&Locale=en-us&TextSearch=Age%2Bof%2BEmpire%2BII&Type=Both&CurrentPage=0&TotalPages=1&ShowCriteria=0&SortCriteria=Relevance&Compatibility=Unknown&LastRequested=14

    Step 2: If the version of Age of Empires II is not compatible, I suggest to install the program under Windows XP service pack 2 compatibility mode and check if that helps.

    Microsoft does not contact you unless YOU have made prior arrangements with them to do.

    Hi Annanj,

    This can happen when a temporary error occurs, it indicates that one or more authors VSS returned an error. To diagnose the problem, type the following command from an elevated command prompt:

    Vssadmin list writers

    a. Open command prompt by clicking on start prompt by typing in the start search box.

    b. right-click on command prompt and select run as administrator.

    c. type vssadmin list writers and press ENTER.

    This should provide information on what writer returned the error. More details about the error must also be registered by this writer in the event log.
