I've been trying many different dates to accomplish a system restore, and it continues to tell me it won't let me do that. My mcafee isn't seeming to work after an update. It also looks different.

how do i do a system restore if it will not let me click on anything but select the date of the present time...?

Then you can't. Either System Restore has been turned off, or older restore points have been removed to make room for newer ones.

I have tried and tried to turn on my system restore. Followed many postes and gone all through the built in help system. I even downloaded an automatic guide that lead me to the my computer properties and then got stuck for an hour because I don't have a system restore tab. When I try to use the run pathway to just get at it it tells me the admin has it disabled. I am the admin and I am sure of it because I can create an admin acount. Please Help me.

Luis/Dan - if you get the message that it cannot find that dll you can try registering it by doing the following. Go to the run command and type: regsvr32.exe C:\windows\system32\framedyn.dll before doing this ensure it is in this directory - or just type the location of that file if it is elsewhere on your system. Hope this helps

You can delete all your System Restore points by turning off System Restore and then rebooting. This is done under the 'system' icon in the Ctrl Panel- System Restore tab.

I turned off "system restore" to install some antivirus programs as they suggested (BIG mistake) and it has not worked since. I have tried everything under the sun that has been detailed by internet guru's, and nothing works.When I click on " restore my computer to an earlier time " or "create a restore point", I get the following message, "this application has failed to start because framedyn.dll was not found. reinstalling the application may fix this problem." I am new at this computer game . Please help.

Hi Leo. My SR is not allowing me to select any earlier restore points (they are not bold) I figured the registry for Sr is corrupt. Can you verify?

There is a bug in System Restore.

My C disk has 6 GB of free space. Total size is 10GB. System restore is allocated 450MB. After running Windows update, SR suspended itself because it doesn't think there is enough free disk space.

After over 5 years, you might think XP SP2 is pretty much debugged. Nope.

There is no service pack 3. You probably need to perform a repair install off the original CD.

I never could find System Restore in my System Tools. Why it's not there I have no clue but I typed the information in the RUN area as you described and it popped right up.

Thanks

Thanks

...Huh? On my computer, it's just in start menu -> all programs -> accessories -> system tools. I certainly didn't put it there, it's always been there.

Maybe it's a Home/Pro difference - I've got Home, do you all use Pro?
