• System restore points keep deleted by the system

  Recently, I have activated the protection settings for windows 8 and define the use of storage 10 GB max. Every time before the update of the system, I'll create a manually restore point. But after a few days, the system will change the disk space maximum at 0 kb system restore point and remove the point of restoration that I created. Even if the protection settings is always on. sfc/scannow and re - install windows 8 does not resolve. No idea how to solve this problem?

  Dual-boot
  1. Windows 7 Professional 32-bit
  2. Windows 8 Pro 32-bit

  Peterson,

  It is a common problem with Windows dual-boot configuration. Windows 8 restore points are physically deleted by Windows 7 when you log out of Windows 8 and boots in Windows 7. There are several workaround solutions to stop this behavior. A such work-around is to use the Bitlocker feature on the volume on Windows 8.

  BitLocker is a feature of security integrated into Windows 8. When it is enabled on the volume on which Windows 8 restore points are enabled, then it is inaccessible to the Windows 7 Volume when you start in.

  There are some other solutions workaround to make some registry changes. But it can be risky If you're not good with computers. Here is an article that tells you about the same problem on Windows 7, when it is configured to dual boot with an earlier Windows operating system.

• Why keep away my restore points for vista Home premium?

  I read recently on TechRepublic on Vista Restore devours all the disk space if not configured correctly. I used vssadmin list shadowstorage to see my restore points there is not! I did a manual restore yesterday point and repeat the command vssadmin, it appeared and everything looked good.  I went today to see if the restoration has created another point of restoration, as it is supposed to do on a daily basis, made the shadowstorage command, no restore points, including the one I did yesterday!
  I am running Vista Home Premium, SP1 32 Bit on an Acer Aspire 6920 G computer laptop with Intel Core 2 Duo T5550 1.83 GHz, 667 MHz FSB, 2MB L2 Cache, 3 GB of Ram and a 320 GB hard drive with a partition C: and D:, 104 GB left of 140 GB on D: and C:, so disk space is not a problem the latter being of full backups mobile operating system and storage, NVIDIA GEFORCE 9500 M. For security I run McAfee Security Center, as well as Spybot S & D operation resident Teatimer. Not a dual-boot machine. I checked that the C: drive is selected for restore points, and it is. Any help is greatly appreciated.

  Hello

  Absolutely, I think, that's why I mentioned. Tried to get others who suggest Spybot
  for Vista and especially IE8 to tell people to stop the SBSD service and do not use TeaTimer.

  Good idea to stop the SBSD Service - value STOPPED and MANUAL, you can use SpyBot as
  as scan if needed.

  If you uninstall an antivirus/antispyware/security program never always go to their site and get
  the removal tools and/or special instructions - if you just use remove any at all they tend

  Avast and Prevx proved extremely reliable and compatible with everything I threw at them.

  Avast Home free - stop any shields is not necessary except away from Standard, Web and network is working.

  Prevx - Home - free

  Windows Firewall

  Windows Defender

  Protected IE - mode

  IE 8 - SmartScreen filter WE (IE 7 phishing filter)

  I also IE always start with asset if filter InPrivate IE 8.
  (Sometimes you have to temporarily turn off with the little icon to the left of the + bottom right of IE)

  Avast - stop home - free - all shields you do no need except leave Standard, Web and network running.
  (Double-click the blue icon - details look OK. - upper left Shields - those that you do not cancel).

  Also get Malwarebytes - free - use as scanner only. If you ever suspect malware, and that would be unusual with
  Avast and Prevx running except a low occasional (not much), updated cookie and then run it as
  a scanner. I have a lot of scanners and they never find anything of note that I started to use this configuration.

• Is it possible to defragment AND keep the system restore points to lose in Win XP?

  Sometimes my system restore points disappear and I have learned to rely on them.  I heard that defragmentation can erase the system - something to do with the Windows shadow copy service restore points.  Is there a safe way to defragment a hard drive (internal or external) WITHOUT losing any system restore points: both those created manually as well as automatically created? I have a lot of disk space and all criticalWindows updates. No malware. CHKDSK not display any errors.

  Joel-

  I really thank you goes out all the time and difficulties that you have not only to explain my problem but at the arrive at a solution that has worked for you.  I already read the CNET critical user of and download Ultimate Defrag, but have not yet installed it because I have a few questions that may be critical to my getting the same wonderful performance you met.  Not wanting to - by my own ignorance - replace one problem with another, can I ask if you know where I can find these answers? :

  (1) my PC has 1 G of RAM an and a Pentium 4 processor, a desktop Dell 8 years.  Have I not enough resources for the programme of work?

  (2) I have two internal HDs - a bunch of 80 G and 40 G Data - with a 1 t external for backups.  Will I be possible to defragment one at a time so that a period of 8 hours at night will give the app some time to run and complete - especially the first time I use it on every HD?

  (3) a review mentions a setting from the default installation for those who have my knowledge minimum tech. Is it choose a wise move in my case? I only will give non-essential options or options I'd understand even when doing this?

  (4) I need to turn off WinPatrol (Start Menu Manager) and install my Avast AV in addition to all the normal precautions for cleaning?

  (5) should I disconnect from the internet before installing (I have a shortcut on the desktop that allows me to turn off my DSL modem)?

  (6) can the program itself or its installer to run in Mode safe and which is preferred? Of course, I would create a prior restore point I have restart mode without failure.

  (7) a critic says that the 50-page help document is of no use to someone with my limited knowledge. Is there a training video or another type of help?

  If I have already imposed on you enough, perhaps some other experienced users could help answer the above?

  Thanks again!

  Hello

  Delete files using disk cleanup
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/delete-files-using-disk-cleanup#delete-files-using-disk-cleanup=Windows-7

  Clean all the files on the computer:

  System Restore and shadow copies. With this option, you can remove all but the most recent point on the restore disc.

  Use system restore to return your system files to an earlier point in time, restore points. If your computer is running normally, you can save disk space by removing the previous restore points.

  In some editions of Windows 7, restore points can include previous versions of files, called the shots and backup images created with Windows complete PC Backup. These files and images will also be deleted. For more information about system restore, refer to what is system restore?

  I hope this helps.

• Windows 8, I keep losing restore points at all to zero.

  I can create a correct restore point, but after a few days when you check again the restore point disappeared! This also applies to the system restore points that are installed automatically during upgrades.

• 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.

  I want to keep only a single copy of a System Restore Point that I created mine so I know when I did and why I did it.

  With Windows Defender, I noticed that a new restore point is created whenever there is an update of Windows definitions, if I use the method of automatic or manual update.  I found that when I opened the system restore and found a new copy with description: "Installation: Windows Update.  In the history of Windows Defender, I noticed that the time corresponded to when the update the definitions file.

• Missing system restore points

  Take a look at my system restore points, I found that it was not. There is no reason I know for it - system restore has been on, but being created no restore points - I turned it off and then new and now that it will create restore again points.

  Something happened to me I was had been looking at some dodgy sites "make money on the web easily" just out of curiosity. Anyone know of any malicious dishes that destroys the restore points. It would be a sneaky way to stop the removal of spyware.

  Also I noticed some automatic update of Microsoft had just completed installation - would this have deleted restore points? From what I read the auto create restore points updates not remove them.

  Any ideas anyone?

  Hello

  I found this info:

  If there is no free disk space on the monitored system drive or on any of the available non-system drives, System Restore purges restore systematically points in all monitored partitions to free disk space. If the free disk space falls below 50 MB on any monitored partition, System Restore will stop watch and suspend.
  Note: Some users have reported that using the Real Player One has been deleted and restore points. Please check your log to the system event viewer for events to restore the system to a volume error event.

• Compac presario CQ5504F don't give me a place to create a restore point.

  It gives me no place to set a restore point. All the it geves is restore points generated by computer and no place to install my own. What I am doing wrong?

  In the search programs and files box, type system restore and wait a second. Above to select Create a restore point ant the next window appears.

  

  Make sure the Protection settings are on the disk for which you want to create a restore point. Select the drive and click on create. I don't use it because I keep images on my disks on a storage devive attached to the separate network.

  Method 2:
  Try to perform the clean boot and check if it helps:
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/310353

  NOTE: When you are finished troubleshooting, make sure that you reset the computer in start mode normal such as suggested in step 7 of the above article.

  Method 3:
  Try the running System File Checker and see if it helps:

• Why my restore points are deleted when I restart my computer?

  The computer will not keep a restore point created manually, after I have shut down and restart. I increased the storage for her area in the protection of the system, also I do not see that automatic restore points are created by windows. What is going on?

  Hello

  ·         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.

  If you do not Dual Boot on your system, but again, you are facing this problem then I suggest you to run the Windows Live OneCare safety scanner which is a Virus scan online provided by Microsoft.

  To run the Windows Live OneCare safety scanner please refer to the link provided below.

  You can also download and install Microsoft Security Essentials on the system if you don't have any software installed on the system.

• in the system restore, why the previous months are cleared from the restore points? It shows only the current month.

  Windows XP operating system

  System Restore can record only as much as is will insert in the allocated space restore points.  Once the space is filled, older restore points are purged as new ones are created.

  By default, the system restore allocates 12% of the score, he's being followed.  On today's big hard disks, which can cause a huge allowance for the restoration of the system, which in turn can cause problems.  For best results, set about 1 GB space.  See http://bertk.mvps.org/html/diskspace.html

• 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.
