Troubleshoot System Restore
Some common problems that could cause System Restore not to work properly
and their solutions include the following:
. There is less than 200 MB of free space available on the
computer-free up some space on the hard drive by deleting unused files or
images.
. After rebooting, the restoration is unsuccessful-choose an earlier
restore point and try again.
. Restoration was denied due to non-administrator status-log out and
then back in as an administrator.
. The System Restore Service is not running-Open Administrative Tools,
click Computer Management, and then click Services and Applications. Click
Services, and double-click System Restore Services from the list. Verify the
service is started and running. If not, under Service status, click Start
and change the startup type to Automatic.
Solutions to more complicated problems can be found in the Microsoft
Knowledge Base by clicking Search the Knowledge Base and entering System
Restore and a few keywords that describe the problem. For example, System
Restore Does Not Restore Printer Drivers to Original State details what to
do if System Restore fails to restore printer drivers although the rest of
the restore process seems to go smoothly.
