Can't Create a Restore Point

[Guest]

I'm getting this error when I try to create a restore point: "The restore
point could not be created because the shadow copy provider had an unexpected
error while trying to process the specified operation. Please try again." I
keep getting this message.

On rare occasions I've been able to set a restore point, most times I
cannot. I made a habit of setting a restore point in Windows XP before
installing software, and I hope to be able to continue with that practice on
Vista Ultimate. Unless there is a reason I no longer need to?

Thank you in advance for any help you can provide.

Will you contact me via email? Remove "online" from my address. I haven't
seen this error before and would like for you to create a trace file for us.
This is easiest to do in email.

Thanks!
