System Restore fails with the following error:

There was an unexpected error. The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is
incorrect (0x8007007B). System Restore will now close.

This error is caused by faulty imaging by the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) that
results in the presence of an invalid volume. To see if this is the problem, go to System in
Control Panel and open System Protection. There will be two volumes shown, one of which is
selected and named “Missing.” Selecting C:\ and deselecting “Missing” solves the problem.

Thanks for your reply. I have found the cause of the problem: Creation
of restore point was suppressed by the system setting thus there was no
restore point. I changed the setting and manually created a restore
point, then the error message is no longer generated. So, the wording
for the error message is incorrect in this case.

I have attempted to post this reply twice already but for some reason
they never got here. I am finger crossing that this one will go through.

I found that cause of the error message was that there was no restore
point because the system was set to suppress creating restore point. I
do not know how the setting ended up this way. I changed the setting and
manually created a restore point and then the error message stopped
showing up.

Your other two replies did show up, Churin.
