Make sure you can see all hidden files (Folder Options>View
The command-line parameter is case sensitive:

1. Insert the Windows XP CD
2. Click [Start] [Run]
3. Type the following command without the quotes and press Enter
"rundll32.exe advpack.dll,LaunchINFSection C:\Windows\Inf\sr.inf" [Case
Sensitive]

System Restore core files should be reinstalled. Alternately, you may
also open Windows Explorer, navigate to "C:\Windows\Inf" folder and
right-click sr.inf (choose Install) (sr.inf shows up as sr in windows
explorer).

Why do you think you need to? If you're having a problem with it, usually
all you need to to turn it off, then turn it back on.
