system restore only works in safe mode?

Original title: why my system restore won't work except in safe mode?

I wonder why the system restore doesn't work on my system more except in Mode without failure. I tried to disable my anti-virus and run a program on my HP Pavilion system that corrects all files that may be lost or got corrupted. I made sure the system restore is still in Window\System | 32, I disabled updates, restarted the system, tried the restore without success then turned on automatic updates. I went to every possible useful article (not!) I can find on the web or Microsoft, and nobody seems to know what to do.  Yes, I can do a Safe Mode system restore, but I want it works on my system itself.  Any help out there?  Thanks for your time. So :)

Without knowing what anti-virus product and/or security you are running on your computer, it is virtually impossible to answer your question.

On the off-chance that you use Norton - Norton is known to cause problems with the system restore and this problem is addressed in the Symantec Support here page:

  • Firefox crashes at startup, only works in safe mode

    Hello.
    As the title says, I can't start Firefox because it crashes instantly. It only works in safe mode.

    That's what I've tried so far, but it did not work:

    Restored Firefox.

    Reinstalled Firefox and also delete my profiles.

    Hardware acceleration disabled.

  • WiFi MiniPCI card only works in "Safe Mode with network.

    AR5001Xplus MiniPCI card only works in "Safe Mode with network" (windowsXP-Home-SP2 and all updates recent).
    In 'normal' mode, it freezes my laptop after a few seconds.

    Hello

    Why you don t give us more information about your problem? We don't know what unit you have? Is the original part of card or you have built at least?

    At the moment I can just recommend you to reinstall the unit with recovery media. If the problem persists, try to install the card separately with the right driver. Otherwise, you must change the WiFi card or test it with the other.

    Give us more information.

    Hi Tony,

    Blue screen errors can occur if a problem causes Windows 7 to stop or restart unexpectedly. You might see a message that says: "Windows was arrested to avoid damaging your computer."

    These errors can be caused by hardware and software issues, and it can be difficult to solve the problem. The following methods and tools can often help get Windows running again.

    1. what operating system is installed on your computer?

    2. What is the code in the exact error message or Blue Screen of Death?

    3. have you made any recent hardware or exchange of software on your computer before the show?

    What version of the operating system Windows am I running? :

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/help/which-version-of-the-Windows-operating-system-am-i-running

    Warning: Before performing a reinstallation of Windows 7, should be prepared for the worst scenarios that led to your existing data on your computer being deleted. These data include data personal, settings, information about the hardware and software drivers. In case of a worst case scenario, you may have to reinstall all the programs. Make sure that you back up personal data to disks or other external storage devices before you reinstall the operating system.

  • LCD monitor only works in safe mode

    I connected a new monitor and will work in safe mode. I tried to change all the settings in safe mode but nothing seems to work when I restart the computer in normal mode. Help, please

    I'd like to see if you can install any software that came with your monitor.

    There is another option to enter in Windows Vista, choose activation lower-resolution (640 X 480)... .or the VGA mode as it used to be called.

    Try to install the drivers in safe mode if it does not work.

    If these don't work, let me know the exact model you new monitor so I can see if I can find any known issues.

  • No network after a power failure and only works in safe mode with network. Operating system is Vista SP2.

    The latest patch to update this system was .net framework 4

    This behavior has occurred on several machines after a power failure in our factory caused all systems restart.

    I have run chkdsk

    I ran sfc

    SafeMode internet works fine.

    Clean boot does not solve the problem.

    Cannot remove .net framework 4 because I can't get windows installation service to work properly.

    X red on the connection in normal mode

    I run with the reset.cmd file subinacl to reset all the registry settings. It gave no results.

    I looked at all of the services that are running successfully in normal mode and those that are run in mode safe and that services to start. This got me internet again in normal mode, but we are far from finished there are a lot of services is still needed. I'll make one by an approach to see what will begin and what doesn't.

    System Restore was successful, but had no bearing on the issue. Here's the solution that worked.

    Safe Mode boot

    on computers that are running Windows live onecar I ran as administrator onecare removal tool

    Remove the Adobe Flash 10 utility

    Open msconfig and services.msc

    enable all services that are running in safe mode to run msconfig on the next reboot. Also enable required services for Windows updates and windows install

    Enable

    BITS, com +, Windows udpate, workstation and service server and all dependent services. If you miss some that is good because you and individual services and start them from services.msc when the next restart.

    Restart the machine.

    I found that after this reboot a few updates have been posted in the update list installed in the control panel that had not been previously listed.

    Remove all instances of Java (cannot be done in safe mode)

    Reinstall Java and flash player from their respective Web sites

    I installed Microsoft Security Essentials www.microsoft.com/security_essentials

    Run windows update and install the updates.

    run msconfig and select normal startup

    Restart and ensure normal operation.

    It takes about 1/2 hour, 1 hour per machine which was much lower than a full reinstall.

    Hi Manju,

    Remember to make changes before this problem?

    If the computer works fine only in Safe Mode, then some present third party software on the computer may cause this problem.


    Method 1:
    activate the boot and then check if the problem persists

    Follow step 1 in the link below,

    How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7

    If everything works well after a clean boot, you can deduce that some third-party services are at the origin of the problem.

    Continue with the remaining steps to pin-point on the third party service.

    After find you the program that is causing the problem, you will have to perhaps to update or install a newer version of the program, if you rarely use that you should consider uninstalling the software.

    Important: n ' forget not to put the computer to a normal startup follow step 7 in the link.


    Method 2:
    you can follow the steps described in the article below, which addresses the problem of blue screen
