When I run system restore, it runs through to `restoring settings`
Then reboots and gives the message...............

Your computer cannot be restored to "date" no change has been made to your
computer.

I have tried other restore points but same answer.

Any help tto resolve this appreciated.
thanks

Hi,

There are several reasons this may occur. Let's take a look at Event
Viewer for any System Restore logs that may have been created recently
that may help us diagnosing 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.

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

I went to the link below and will have to spend more time understanding it,
however I did try setting a `test` restore point and the PC successfully
restored to this point after rebooting. Should that be pointing me in any
particular direction?
