System restore

[Charlie]

Hello,
When I try to use system restore,I click any restore point
and after my computer goes through the restore process and
restarts,I get an "unable to restore system using this
restore point,try another restore point" message.I tried
several points, but none work.Thanks

Hi Charlie,

Once System Restore is corrupted, all you can do is restart it. This loses
all existing restore points, but then again it's not working right now
anyways. To do this, start/run services.msc and scroll down to the SR
service. Double-click it and stop it, set the startup type to disabled.
Click apply/ok and reboot. Reverse the steps to reenable it.
