    My current date and time keeps coming back at a date and time that is earlier and I have to stop and restart several times.

    According to my experience, this could probably be 1 of 2 things...

    The first thing that could cause this problem is an infection.  Have you had a chance to run an antivirus program to scan your system for infections?  You currently have no antivirus installed software / protect your system?

    The second thing it could be is a dying CMOS battery.  If you are using a desktop computer, change the battery should be a quick troubleshooting step to see if this solves the problem... If you use a laptop computer, he might need time to disassemble the laptop and replace the battery.

  • I have Win XP and my system restore doesn't give me an option to reset to an earlier date. This option is not yet available in my file system

    When I go to start, Control Panel, system and click on system restore, there is no option for me to use the system restore back to an earlier date. I downloaded WinZip and it said I had grown pilots. NA not have money to pay for the update of the driver of Winzip, so I went to intel and had updated the drivers. After that, my pages was ok, full screen. But this morning when I turned on my computer, my office is full screen, but all the fonts were tiny! Then when my screensaver is, there was black on both sides of the photos and the photos were more full-screen. Some were on the right, the left and come inn in the middle with black on both sides. I could hardly read my icons on the desktop. I went to view and enlarges the most important fonts. But I have nothing I couldn't even my Web pages to fill my screen. I removed the update of the driver of WinZip from the computer. So, I don't know if it's happening on the site of Intel or where I updated without updating the driver of WinZip?

    I tried to use my system restore because WinZip Optimizet n did not check for outdated drivers, I never should have gone to Intel to update. My Internet Explorer opens full screen but the pages he pulls up is located in the middle of the screen and I can not develop full screen.

    Is there anyway that I can get my system restore to open so that I can go back to an earlier date and have my computer back? All that is on the page for my system restore is: System Restore can track and reverse harmful to your computer changes: a box to check 'Turn off System Restore': disk space: and the State: (C): monitoring. That's all.

    Thanks for posting on the Microsoft answers Forum.  The first thing I would suggest running a virus scan.  Make sure you have no virus causing problems.  If you do not have an antivirus program, then you can download it free here: http://www.microsoft.com/Security_essentials/

    If there is no virus or it still does not work after virus cleaning, then start in safe mode and test from there.  Here are the instructions for Safe Mode.

  • I restored the computer to an earlier date and now the password windows 7 won't save us.

    This means that a different password was in effect at this point, even if your daughter thinks otherwise. There are a lot of options built into Windows to help you out of this situation:
    • Log on to your account admin to spare, and then reset the password for your existing account (works only if you set up an alternative admin account).
    • Log in as administrator mode without failure, then reset the password for your existing account (the password is usually empty).
    • Insert your flash drive USB with the password key file (only works if you have taken the time to create such a key file).
    • Use the password indicator (only works if an indicator was created and if it's good enough to allow you to guess the password)
    • Check your paper files (works only if you threw down the password somewhere)
    The most important point would be: run a machine without a spare admin account is about as risky to have a house key. Sooner or later, he is at risk for any number of reasons.

    I want to use to restore the system to an earlier date. How do I do that?

    Hello

    In order to restore the system to an earlier date, you must have a system that is created on your system to a previous restore point date. Press the Windows key + W, type System Restore in the search box. Results, click create a restore point. Now in the System Properties window, click on System Restore.

  • Restoration of Windows 8 at an earlier Date

    Yesterday I played on a program called Train Simulator. What I did to change the display of the route, I was working on, in what is called the world editor. What I didn't realize is that when I changed the display of this way I'd do it for everyone else.

    I looked around my laptop and found a restore option, but the thing is that you can go when you have created a restore date. On other laptops, I had there was this system where you had the option to open the system restore program and select a date in the calendar, which means you don't have to go through this stupid system to create your own restore date.
    I was on Windows Live Chat, and they took me practically the same procedure when they asked if I could find another button of dining options, which I couldn't, they said that there is nothing they could do to help me.
    I think there must be something I can do to restore the computer to an earlier date.

  • I can't get my system to restore to an earlier date no matter how far back I go.

    Any date I select this option to restore, I always get the message that my system does not restore to an earlier date. I tried all the ideas based on knowledge, but in vain. I am logged on as administrator and run the AVG anti-virus.

    Gunner02,
    Here are a few articles that cover the system restore issues and information.  Some antivirus programs will be in the path of the system restore feature and might not work.  I would say the first tent to create a restore manually point and check that it creates correctly.  If it isn't then I turn off\on the system restore (This erases all previous restore points) and create a new restore point and test.
    If the problem persists then you will want to remove AVG, and test the system restore function.

    Hi wetmartinia,

    1. do you have security software installed on the computer?

    2. did you of recent changes on the computer?

    3. you receive an error with the message code?

    Method 1

    In many cases software security installed on your computer may interfere with the process of restoration of the system on the computer.

    I suggest that you disable the security software on the computer and then perform the system restore, check if it works.

    Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you do not disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network during the time that your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

    Also see the Microsoft article below.

    How a software antivirus and system restore work together

    Method 2

    If the previous step fails, then view the event logs to investigate System Restore service errors, post back with the details.

    (a) click Start, click run, type eventvwr.msc/s in the Open box, and then press ENTER.

    (b) click on the category System .

    (c) click the Source tab to sort by name, and then look for "sr" or "srservice." Double-click each of these services and then evaluate the event description for any indication of the cause of the problem.

  • Restore my system to an earlier date

    I have a Windows 7 Home Premium, 64-bit.  How it restore to a date when it was working better.  Should I go back back?

    Thank you.

    Yes, you can restore the PC to an earlier date. Please confirm with the colleague regarding the date and try to restore the PC to this date. If this fails, you can try an earlier date.

    The problem is that the installed updates are causing problems. Once the application works successfully, disable the automatic update of Flash Player. For more information, see the following link:

  • Runtime error in Mozilla after restoring computer to an earlier date,

    I recently had to restore my computer to an earlier date. In doing so, Firefox went from 38.0.1 to 37.0.2. Now, I get the error "cannot find Mozilla runtime. I am out, trying to find a way to fix it. I have quite a few bookmarks that I prefer not to lose. I thought I could import to Internet Explorer but not had any luck with either. Have no solution? Thank you. I am posting this on another computer where is the problem. This computer is running Windows 8.1.

    Using the system restore can cause your installation of Firefox get corrupted because only the whitelist files are restored, so always be careful with the system restore function.

    • You may lose data in the profile Firefox as of .js and .ini files folder
    • You may need to reinstall the affected software

    Do a clean reinstall and delete the program folder before Firefox to (re) install a new copy of the current version of Firefox.

    If possible to uninstall your current version of Firefox to clean the Windows registry and settings in the security software.

    • Do NOT remove the "personal data" when you uninstall your current version of Firefox, because this will remove all profile folders and you lose personal data such as bookmarks and passwords including data profiles created by other versions of Firefox.

    Delete the program folder Firefox before installing newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.

    • (32-bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
    • (Windows 64 bit) "C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla.

    Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and will not be affected by a uninstall and (re) install, but do NOT delete personal data when you uninstall Firefox which removes all Firefox profile folders and you lose your data.

  • Windows restore cannot restore on certain dates. Tried many dates, any failure to restore.

    I am trying to restore to an earlier date, but all the dates I take returns as restore failed. Here are all the dates in bold with activity. I think I lost a line in a program somehow. Windows XP has been installed on the computer when you buy don't have is not an installation disc.

    There are some programs that unfortunately interfere with the restoration of the system (Norton is probably the most common culprit). See:

    or

    http://Web.archive.org/Web/20100124215607/http://bertk.MVPs.org/html/srfail.html

    What is the reason for which you want to run the system restore? I ask because it must be performed in certain situations.

    Also, feel free to tell us the brand and model of your PC so that the type of XP you're running (Home, Pro, or MCE). Also do you have SP3 and all post-SP3 updates to security installed?
