No System restore tab

[Guest]

Hi , please help,
I need to restore my comp but when I try to I get a error message saying
"you do not have the sufficient security privileges to restore your system.
Please contact your administrator or logout and log in again as an
administrator and try again" I do not understand this as I am the
"administrator". I have tried going to control panel, performance and
maintenance, system but when I get to system properties I have no "system
restore" tab. Any help at all will b appreciated!

Hi Bella,

If this error is occurring while logged on as administrator, follow
these steps.

Go to Start - Run and type regedit then press enter.
Navigate to the following registry Key.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows
NT\SystemRestore

In the right pane, right click on each of these Value Keys and select
delete.
"DisableSR"
"DisableConfig"

Close Regedit. Right click on My Computer and select the System
Restore tab. A reboot may be necessary.

If the above doesn't fix the issue, there's a registry edit at Kelly's
Korner.
Look on line 278 left side.
