Restore point utility for XP

[Guest]

Has anyone else had problems creating restore points osing the rsrui shortcut
? Its sending an error message box " System restore point cannot be created.
Restart computer and try again. " This does not cure the problem and all
properties of shortcut & .exe seem ok. Any suggestions ?

Hi,

Let's take a look at Event Viewer for any System Restore logs that may have been
created recently that may help us diagnose the problem.

Go to Start - Run and type eventvwr.msc and press enter.
Click on System in the left pane.
Click the gray title "Source" at the top of the source name column in the right
pane to sort by source name, look for "sr" and "srservice".
Double click on each of these events, then click on the button below the two
arrows in the upper right corner. This will copy the event information to the
clipboard. Paste the information for each of the two event here. There's no need
to post duplicate Event ID's.

How do I use the Event Viewer to search for System Restore logs?
