The System Restore Utility May Be Suspended on a System Drive Even Though
There Is Enough Disk Space
This article was previously published under Q299904
SYMPTOMS
When you examine the settings for the System Restore utility, you may
observe that System Restore is suspended even though you have enough free
disk space on the system drive. If you attempt to start System Restore, you
may receive the following message:
System Restore is suspended because there is not enough disk space
available on the system drive (drive letter). To restart System Restore,
ensure at least 200 megabytes (MB) of free disk space are available on this
drive.
Do you want to start Disk Cleanup to free more disk space now?
Yes No
CAUSE
This behavior can occur when the following conditions are true:
A drive that is not a system drive that has System Restore enabled on it
has reached less than 50 MB of free disk space.
A copy, delete, modify operation was made to a file that is monitored by
System Restore on such drive.
This will cause System Restore to suspend across the system.
RESOLUTION
To work around this behavior, use either of the following two methods:
Method 1
If the drive that is running low on disk space does not need to be
monitored, disable System Restore on that drive:
On the System Properties dialog box, click the System Restore tab.
Under Drive Settings, click Available drives to select the appropriate
drive.
Click Settings.
Click to select the Turn off System Restore on this drive check box.
Click OK, and then click OK on the System Properties dialog box.
Method 2
Start the Disk Cleanup tool and free up to 200 MB of space on the drive
that has caused the problem. You can also free that space by deleting
unnecessary files, folders, or programs from the drive.
If you have freed at least 200 MB of disk space, the status of System
Restore may be displayed as "Suspended" on the System Restore user
interface. This behavior is by design as System Restore, by default, waits
for 15 minutes after you have freed the disk space before System Restore
restarts. After you have freed up the disk space, you can start System
Restore to immediately restore its monitoring function on your computer if
you click Start, point to Programs, point to Accessories, click System
Tools, and then click System Restore.
Hope this helps.
