REQ: I need help with System Restore

[robinjoan]

When I try to access System Restore, I get a message that
states: The procedure entry point RemoteassistanceprepareSystem
Restore could not be located in the Dynamic Link Library
Winsta.dll.
Could someone please help me with this problem, as I am not
able to access Restore at all.
Thank you,
Bob K.

If the DLL file is corrupt, you can download a new one here:
DLL-files.com - winsta.dll, free download

Thanks for the info Byte, but it didn't work, I am getting a message
that says winsta.dll was loaded,but the dllregister server entry point
was not found.

This file can not be registered.

I have no idea what this all means, maybe you can help.
Thank you
Bob K.

Hi Bob,

Reinstalling System Restore will repair this. The down side is all restore
points will be lost in the process, but that doesn't matter at this point
because they can not be accessed.
