• Failed to create system restore point exception exception c:\windows\system32\shell32.dll,control_rundll,"c:\windows\system32\sysbm.cpl",system

  Original title: I can't do a restore point.

  I get exception c:\windows\system32\shell32.dll,control_rundll,"c:\windows\system32\sysbm.cpl",system what can I do?

  This has happened for a very long time.

  Does really say '... sysdm.cpl "?"

  Is that what the text complete and accurate of what the message said exactly?  (there is no sysbm.cpl in XP, but there's a sysdm.cpl).

  What happens if you click on start, run and enter in the box:

  sysdm.cpl

  Click OK - the system properties box opens?

  What happens if you click on start, run and in the type box (exactly):

  %SystemRoot%\System32\restore\rstrui.exe

  Click OK - is the open window of the system restore?

  What is exactly the process (step by step) you are using when you try to create the restore point and when in the process you see this message?

  I think it's a miracle that the Microsoft support engineer can provide a link to an article when the error message report you is a little out of whack and articles doesn't mention your error message at all.  It's real good troubleshooting or clairvoyance!

  You should also tell us a little about your system:

  Since the Microsoft Answers forum does not have any kind of information system request when a new question is asked, we know absolutely nothing about your system.  Not knowing the basic information a problem prolongs the frustration and the agony of these issues.

  Thank you MS Answers, allowing the resolution of simple problems as frustrating and a lot of time as possible.

  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..

  The question was preceded by a loss of power, aborted reboot or abnormal termination?  (this includes the plug pulling, buttons power, remove the battery, etc.)

  The afflicted system has a working CD/DVD (internal or external) drive?

• New creation problem with Vista HP restore point

  My laptop, a sony vaio VGN FE-890, developed all of a sudden a group of problems, slowdown, programs responds not, printer won, t etc load.

  I'm doing a system restore but all my restore points went off the menu except for a restore at the present time and date. When I try to create a new restore point it will only ask for a name, and then creates a new restore with the date and the current time point. I need to restore to a week or more in the past. What I am doing wrong?

  If you don't see more of 1 restore point, that's all you have. If each time that you create a new, the previous 'disappears' my first suspicion is that you don't have enough space allocated to store more than 1 restore point. This article tells you how to investigate your system restore benefits:

  http://blogs.TechRepublic.com.com/window-on-Windows/?p=1077&tag=nl.E132

  This article is general information about the system restore:http://www.davescomputertips.com/newsletters/2010/101101.php

  If this isn't the problem, the next thing I see is that you have some sort of automated process of 'cleaning up' configuration 'extra' restore points. This seems to be a remote possibility because most of the cleaning tools are not triggered by the creation of restore point, but I suppose it could be possible.

  There are many utilties of freeware that make the management of restore points a little more friendly that the native windows tools, here is a link to one of them:

  I just got the 'volume' down on my percentage for RPs to 200 MB space and he killed all of them except the last RP.

  Then (although SR was always open) I did a new PR and there were two in the calendar.  Then I did another and there were three...

  Then I closed SR and began again and only the last one (number 3) was still there and the other two had been killed.

  Did you present your cursor percentage of volume, right?  If this isn't the case, you should at least try.

• No matter what file/program I open and work will appear later in the trash & Windows create a lot of restore points.

  Original title: Windows XP: recycle bin and estore points.

  After the last formatting the computer and installation of Windows XP:
  (1) any file/program I opened and work with / appears later in the trash even if I did not remove it. The file or the program remains in its original folder and nothing happens to her, I can work with him when I want.
  (2) Windows creates so many "restore points" that once a month I have to delete "all except the last" in order to have my program anti-virus (PC-Tools) are working properly.  Is there a cure for this?
  Thanks in advance,

  You did the right thing by turning SR off on your external drive.  See http://bertk.mvps.org/html/tips.html#11

  There is no need to have the system restore check a partition which contains only data files.  Http://bertk.mvps.org/html/description.html (this is emphasis added)

  About the system restore

  • System Restore monitors changes to the system and saves the State of the system as a restore point. If a system problem occurs following a change of system, the user can return the system to a previous state by using a restore point data.
    Applications and the system can create restore points when changes made to the system occur. System Restore also creates checkpoints every 24 hours of absolute time. In addition, users can create manual restore at all time points.
  • System Restore does not restore user data or documents, so it will not cause users to lose their files, email, browsing history or Favorites. System Restore is also provided to users in safe mode, making it easier for them to reclaim their computers before that happens the problems. Note: a system of Safe Mode or restore the command prompt a cancellation restore point will NOT created!

  The monitoring system

  • System Restore monitors and restores a set of file system and application, the States of these files before the change of the archiving system. System Restore also records a snapshot of the registry (Note: some current registry values will persist) and some dynamic system files. When the System Restore detects that the user is not actively using the computer, (idle time) he compresses the registry and copies of any file made.
  • System Restore requires a minimum of 200 MB of free disk space on the system drive during the installation. When the amount of falls of free space on the disc below 50 MB on ANY monitored drive, System Restore goes into sleep mode and continues to create restore points. All restore points are deleted at that time. System Restore reactivates and resumes create restore points from 200 MB of free disk space on the system drive.
  • Files that are monitored or excluded from the monitoring are specified in the file % windir%\system32\restore\Filelist.xml. For more information, see Monitoring of file Extensions.

• No restore points were created on XP

  I'm on Windows XP home sp3. I recently opened the system restore and discovered that there is no restoration of the available restore points, with the exception of the control point created when I opened the system restore utility. I used the system restore in the past, so I'm familiar with the way that windows automatically creates restore at startup points. As I restart my computer every day it should be every day at least one restore point. Restore my settings are set to maximum disk space, and "turn off System Restore" is not checked. I have 45 GB of free space (60%) on my drive hard. I am very conscientious about my hygiene of the computer. I use Microsoft Security Essentials for my antivirus and I run Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware per week.  I run version 11 for PC Tools Registry Mechanic and Secunia Personal Software Inspector every week. I also run Disk Cleanup (I use ever more options to clean the system restore) and weekly Disk Defragmenter. Once a month I run CCleaner.

  I read the article of knowledge of MS Q301224 database, but it does not apply to my case. I need help to create and keep my restore points. BTW, exactly the same problem exists on another computer in the family who's going XP pro sp3, and I maintain on the same schedule of hygiene.

• Need help with manual XP restore point files to copy

  Hello

  I have a Sony VAIO VGC-RB40 with XP SP3 Desktop installed.  I had a module of RAM go bad and it crashed my system.  I pulled the bad RAM and am able to boot into Windows, but there are some things corrupt as I can not drag and drop, IE does not work, some functions of the system are tangled Windows, etc..   More important still, System Restore does not in my current state, so I can't go back to a previous good restore point.  I backed up my important data, but I'm trying to restore my system back again without wiping everything and start again.  Have followed instructions to manually copy the files to restore to a previous good point point to work around this problem, I'm stuck.  An example of instructions I'm following are here: http://www.aitechsolutions.net/winxpnoboot.html

  At this point, I have all of the necessary registry hive files from a copied previous good restore point in a temp directory ready to crush the current (bad) registry files, but ran into several problems:

  (1) no XP Recovery Console - I need to start a prompt to copy the files to restore onto they're blocked if you're on Windows, but I do not have RC installed since my XP Sony came pre-installed.  All I have is a recovery disc I made which does not let me do anything except wipe my drive and re - install or fix some applications only.  So I downloaded an iso file from XP RC online and made a boot disk that works very well.  Problem is that it doesn't let me recognize my SATA Western Digital C drive:-I see only H:\Minint available through RC, which does not help me.  My understanding is that I need to have the SATA driver files available to use F6 to load these at startup RC so that it recognizes the C: drive.

  (2) so I tried to find the drivers to copy on a diskette to use F6 to install the necessary files, I need to recognize the drive within the RC, but I had no chance.  My Sony has the driver chipset Intel 915 G/P/GV v. 6.0.0.0.1014 and I went on the Sony website but the download is for an installer automatically installs the original drivers that I don't want to do.  I want just the files so I can copy them to a floppy disk.  I also looked on my hard drive and found a directory of the Intel driver then I copied all the files on a diskette in the hope that he would.  But when I tried F6, it says to a file "txtsetup.oem" that isn't there.  He may miss some INF files as well, I'm not sure.  So basically, I still can't boot from the drive RC and recognize my C: to copy the restore point files.

  (3) I also watched my BIOS to see if I can change a setting to enable the SATA drive being recognized as IDE, by some suggestions, I found online.  Problem is my BIOS settings do not seem to have any compatibility option, at least, I don't see one.  When I choose my WD200JD-98HBC0 drive in the BIOS, the 5 options are: LBA/large Mode, block Mode and PIO Mode, Mode DMA S.M.A.R.T.  The first 2 have only choices Auto / disabled.  PIO mode is Auto/0/1/2/3/4 options that I don't understand.  DMA mode has a lot of options, I do not understand.  So unless there is a setting here allows me to have my C: recognized on startup through the RC disk, I don't know?

  (4) my last idea unless someone can help me understand how to recognize my C: is if I remove the disc from my office and put in a USB enclosure and connect it to my laptop.  Then from there, peux I just manually copy these files over to the windows/system32 folder?  Which is equivalent to boot the system through RC and to do or is there something I'm missing here?  It seems the same to me, as long as I can access those bad registry files and overwrite them with 'good', isn't that do the same thing?

  Suggestions of other ways that I can restore my system would be appreciated!  If I can just do an XP repair which would also work, but still I am not sure that my Sony recovery disk allows me to do this?

  Thank you
  Shawn

  As I read, what you're asking for basically is a way to start your machine so that you can move the files on it to try to repair.  Instead of using a Recovery Console, try to create a free "Hirens Boot CD"
  Hirens Boot CD: <> http://www.hirensbootcd.org/ >
  You can start your machine of this and should be able to move the files.  I am not absolutely certain that it handles the SATA drives, but I could not find a machine yet it wouldn't start and access hard drive.  Choose "Mini Windows XP" on the first screen.  It focuses on the windows in order to run a Chkdsk on your hard disk (recommended) in addition to move the files.

  Another alternative is to boot your machine from a free Linux Live CD like Knoppix or Ubuntu.
  Knoppix <> http://www.knoppix.net/ >
  Ubuntu <> http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu/download >
  If you choose Ubuntu, don't forget that it is an installation disc and you * not * to install.  Choose the option "Try Me" instead.  One of these you will start to Linux and to recognize certainly your SATA drive.  This will allow to move the files, but will not perform a repair disk.  Be careful about editing text files as Linux uses an end of line character different than Windows.

• How to restore a significant update to Windows 7 I lost after a restart for an earlier version of the system restore point?

  I am running Windows 7 64-bit Service Pack 1 on a desktop HP Pavilion Elite HPE-350 t. Recently, a malfunction of Windows at startup caused my father reboot the system to a previous system restore point. (He says it was one of several options at startup.) Everything seems to work fine now except that I seem to have lost a critical update Windows downloaded after the restore point, Windows Update Agent 7.6.7600.256. Still, there are in my Windows update history and is listed as "installed successfully", but when I check my updates installed, it is absent. Also, when I try to search for updates installed, I get a message indicating that Windows is up-to-date. I can't uninstall the update and re - install because it is missing from my list of installed updates. So I guess that the re-start to a previous system restore point has put this important WIndows update in limbo. How can ensure me that this update is installed correctly and working properly?

  Hello hakimbenzakis,

  Absolutely, because based on that you are running the latest version of the Windows Update Agent and have the last update to it.

• 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.

  Download and install CCleaner here - you may like it:

  I do not really charge anything for the fixing slow startup time...

• New created manually on VISTA restore point erased all the other restore points

  I have windows Vista and suddenly CCC.exe began to appear and has completely changed my office. All documents on my desktop and icons (file photo) have disappeared. My husband's office has not changed.  My main problem is I did a restore of the system on Jan. 28 and will use the system restore points was (the first being 18 Jan) but thought that I need to come back a few days, so I manually created a restore point from January 26, 2016. Nothing has changed, so I'll use the point 18 Jan restoration but disappeared from all available restore points earlier (before the manual creation of a new).

  I want to make it clear that my restoration system and normally have restore points chose to EXCEPT those disappeared after creating a new restore point manually.   I spent a lot of time looking for answers without success - I've read a lot of problems have been System Restore does not work or restore points are deleted automatically, so that they do not apply to me.

  Help, please!

  Although system restore must be maintained at a min. amount of restore points, in the cleaning disc, other options

  Search button, clean the system restore, it removes all but the last restore point right... Back to youre

  problem, try the R.clicking on the desktop/properties/find "change desktop icons" on the top left, again

  window, select restore default settings, and / or modify, close... Then open cmd prompt, type cmd:

  Sfc/scannow the file check/repair utility runs automatically. Once through, type: CHKDSK C: /F agree to restart.

  type: EXIT restart the pc

  You can run the restoration cleaning before other measures are taken, this gets you the clean restore point

  Hello crazy pc,.

  It is a solution that has worked for others with the lapse of the well-known writer, 0x800423F3. He has contributed to: WAW8

  Try the following:
  (1) start the computer in Mode safe mode without network.
  (2) open an administrator command prompt
  (3) type "net stop winmgmt" without the quotes and press ENTER to make sure that the WindowsManagementInstrumentation (WMI) service is not working.
  4) go to the windows\system32\WBEM\ and rename the drop folder.
  (5) reboot and restart normally
  (6) open an administrator command prompt.
  (7) type "net stop winmgmt" without the quotes and press ENTER to stop the wmi service.
  (8) type winmgmt /resetRepository and restart the system.
