  Hello

  Sorry for the late post. I don't try to back up or restore. I just want to create a restore point.

  Netherless, I followed the advice on this thread http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en/itprovistasecurity/thread/37160397-349e-4aa2-992e-1ffe58b5e51e and renamed the SR file in %windir%\System32\Tasks\Microsoft\Windows\SystemRestore to SR.sav and can create restore points successfully. So I create a restore point, a new SR file is created adjacent to the old (SR.sav)

  However, is it to let the SR.sav file remains in the folder or just delete it? Is it possible that renaming some files to offset it later?

  Please kindly answer. Thank you

• create a system restore point cases printers stop working

  I have two HP printers (Laserjet 1536dnf & Officejet 6500) installed on a PC running Win7 64-bit.  Until January, they worked very well after Win7 updates (restore point created automatically).  Since then, any time a system restore point is created I lose access to these two printers.  By clicking on "Devices and Printers" opens the window and the progress bar goes to infinity with nothing found and the process must be closed with the Task Manager.  Printers are not accessible, but no error message appears.  Any reference to a printer causes this particular process hang and must be closed with the Task Manager.

  Both printers are wired Ethernet to Cisco E3000 router and are set up to be shared in the same home group.  Oddly, a second PC in Win7 that is connected via Ethernet to the same router, using the same two printers can create the system restore points without any impact on these two printers.  The main difference between the two is that the PC works an AMD based system, while the affected uses a system based on Intel.

  Printer is restored when I restore the system since early January restore point.  Any later restore point using simply reproduces the problem. I have searched the FAQ and forum but can find no cure.

  Hi Amundarken,

  Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community and thank you for the opportunity to help you.

  After the description of the problem, looks like HP printers (Laserjet 1536dnf & Officejet 6500) stop working after you have created a restore point system.

  To help you to propose measures to solve the problem, I would appreciate if you could answer the following question:

  You receive an error message or error code?

  Follow the suggestions below for a possible solution:

  Method 1: You can check the status of the Printer Spooler service after you have created a restore point system, if the Printer Spooler service is not started and then start the service and check:

  A print spooler is software that temporarily stores the disk printing hard or in memory until the printer is ready to print. If you were expecting an abnormally long time to print a document, or if you see an error message about the print spooler, Spooler subsystem or spooler resources, you might need to change and then restart the print spooler service on your computer.

  To do this, we recommend that you save your work and restart the computer to restart the print spooler service. If you do not want to restart the computer, try these steps.

  To change or restart the print spooler service, you must be logged on as administrator to perform these steps:

  a. click Startand then click Control Panel.

  b. double-click Administrative Toolsand then click Services.

  c. double-click the Printer Spooler service, and then change the startup type to Automatic. This option sets the spooler service starts automatically when you restart the computer.

  d. If you want to start the spooler service immediately, click Start in the area of The State of the Service .

  Method 2: You can update the printer drivers and check if it works.

  See the following articles from Microsoft for more information on the update of drivers:

  If you have any software backup as totalrecovery pro 9 or norton ghost, they prevent you from creating a manual restore point.  I have 9 pro full recovery and everything I do is to disable the Recovery Manager when I want to create a manual restore point.  There is no problem with system restore points created they work very well it is the manual of who are the problem.

• The system restore points, how can be stored/kept?

  I had problems restore XP on the computer of a friend.  I can't after installing SP3, a question that will be asked in a separate post.

  In an effort to not having to do a full system recovery on the computer in question, with this latest attempt to recover the operating system and install all updates, I started the creation of restore points for the system after each step, I took to get things running and upward.

  And that is, after installing SP3, with installation fails and then going back until the restoration of the system to an earlier configuration, I found none of the points longer existed the system restore.   :-(

  Is there a maximum number of restore points in the system that can be stored in XP and later Windows operating systems?

  Hey, Jose,

  I'm sorry for the late reply to your post, but I removed the weekend baby a bad back that makes me mad.

  I'll try to put your comments in quotes, with my response immediately after, flea.

  The hard drive is 160 GB.  The car had 2 partitions, the recovery partition.  Before reinstalling everything from scratch, I've used Easeus Partition Manager Home Edition to create a 3rd partition to move the original data of C:\ drive to your new partition so my friend can sort files and keep it as he and his family want and discard the rest.  I just copy everything that I can, because I don't know who, what, and where they have stored files.  I actually found a file stored in the recovery partition, but I moved it.

  "Here are some reasons that XP will remove RPs.

  'http://support.microsoft.com/kb/301224 '.

  • Read the KB article.  To make sure that we are on the same page, I get "system drive" means C:\.
  • Lack of free space should not be a problem.  C:\ is 32 GB, 10.1 GB used.  D:\ is 111 GB, GB used 21.2.  E:\ is 5.98 GB, used 5.00.  E: is the recovery Partition.
  • No disk compression
  • Did not display the warnings system restore.
  • I do not turn off System Restore fo any player.
  • This isn't an upgrade of the system to an earlier version, I just turn on the computer the way it came, new out of the box.
  • The system was always restored from the recovery Partition.  I have a set of restore CD, but they have been written about the recorded side with a felt marker.  I have not tried cleaning off the coast, this will be my absolute last resort.   :-)
  • Disk cleanup does not give me tabs and options as mentioned in the article.  I guess that these show upward when you upgrade from a previous version of the operating system.
  • I don't think I'm under low disk space.    :-)
  • Does not not after the age of 90 days, nor have I have reduced the size of the data store.  I didn't know either of these possibilities before you read this KB.  See how the KB has been written, I suppose that these two parameters can be changed.  Can you point me in the right direction for how to do this?  I have a computer multiboot (XP Pro and Vista Ultimate Edition) and I would change the date of age never delete a restore point, because the computer is rarely used nowadays.

  "I don't know that when you install SP3 and it goes well, a single method to uninstall SP3 is to restore the system to the time before SP3 was installed:

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/950249

  This would mean that you would still RPs after that installation of SP3 (if things were favorably) and that was my observation. »

  • When I started to have problems, I simply started from scratch with a Destructive Restore process.  When I'm really frustrated after several failures, I started looking for a quicker way to get back to a point just before I installed SP3 and found this KB.  After that, it was the safe boot mode and using the Control Panel Add/Remove programs to remove the SP3.  And I got very, very familiar with the process!   Laughing out loud

  "Other things I can think can remove all restore Points are third party maintenance and system cleaning tools, poorly designed or introducing a third part malfunction anti malware tools, etc..".  Malicious software can disable the system restore (temporarily of course), but I never saw remove Restore Points.  The XP disk cleanup will also delete all but the most recent restore Point. »

  • Other Easeus Partition Manager, I never got far enough along to try any other third party software.  My "modus operandi" is updated completely OS and Internet Explorer before I install any other software and update it.  However, with the idea of the recovery Partition, do not not the software isn't an option.

  "If they are all absent, it always seems that a human element involved somewhere."

  • I learned long ago, the days of 8-bit, unless there is a real hardware failure, almost all computer problems can be tracked to a human being.
  • Not all system restore points were missing, just the first I created which is involved by creating a restore point after you change the system, such as the removal of my friend doesn't use software.  For example the software to connect to an ISP with a modem.  They got the DSL.   :-)
  • All deletions of software would help speed up the computer for his own use.  The rest of the family is like me today, Mac users.   :-)

  "To answer your question:

  The settings default for the accumulation of Restore Points is 12% of the size of the monitored hard drive or 90 days (both values are adjustable of course).  Microsoft seems to draw attention to the way in which the Restore Points "live."   "Then, the oldest Restore Points will start to get deleted to make room for new Restore Points (see also KB950249).

  • 12%, eh?  Is it possible, in fact, I have exceeded this number by 12% by creating too many restore points?  Knowing what I was doing, which seems to be a possiblity says, as restoring all points were never deleted, only the earlier.

  I'll certainly post the info you suggested in the post on the SP3 forum.

• Is it possible to set up a Vista account which can only download "microsoft updates" (that is, no other non-microsoft files can be downloaded or installed)?

  Hello

  Is it possible to set up a Vista account which can only download "microsoft updates" (that is, no other non-microsoft files can be downloaded or installed)?

  I know that you can create a 'guest account ' with essentially the rights of internet browsing. I would, however, allow for some more flexibility, such as if there are microsoft updates or antivirus updates, this account is permitted to accept these files. I fear that non-microsoft files such as google or yahoo toolbars settle.

  Thanks to anyone who can help us with that.

  There is no installation in Windows to allow this, and I can't say I've ever heard an Add on for Windows that would allow this.

  I recently posted a related problem, which has been repaired/fixed, see http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Operating-systems-and-software/System-Restore-does-not-retain-restore-p...

  My HP Pavilion DV6 is not creating Automatic restore points.  Laptop is ~ 3 months and is using Windows 7.   In my previous post, I had trouble with the restore points disappear.  This problem has been fixed when I corrected a number of bad sectors on my hard drive. Now, I can manually create restore points and they remain intact.  Manual of several points have been in place for a few weeks.  However, I don't get the automatic restore points.  I checked the Task Scheduler, it has listed the restoration of the system, the Task Scheduler Service is started and set to automatic.  I put triggers restore to create a restore point 02:00 every day and start the system.  Whenever I have check the properties of SR within the Task Scheduler window, it lists today and said that "the operation completed successfully (0x0).  However, no restore point is created.  I can't find any errors listed in the event where the viewer associated with the restoration of the system, kind of most prospects, it seems that the Restore Points should be created, but there is no list but the manual I did myself. I've set the conditions of restoration as follows: 1) start the task only if the computer is idle for 10 minutes. (2) wait for idle for 10 minutes. (3) wake the computer to run the task.  System Restore has 15% of disk space for storing points, so there is plenty of room.  Interestingly, on the properties of SR tab listed 'History', says ' story (disabled), so there is nothing listed there.»

  I must be missing something - any ideas?

  Last updated: the scenario and the procedure of johngalt I linked above works like a charm.  I'm daily Restore Points just like I want.  In the cases where I decide I want to only a couple of a week, I can easily change the new task at the request I created, so I don't plan to post further.   Question is resolved :-)  Thanks for the help!
