Just had a reformat done, can't find System Restore at all, although I used it once and created a Restore Point, very first day. ( My printer has lost connection and I need to see if going back will fix that.) Thanks.

when i tried to restore my system it say "there are currently no restore point available"Please help me out

There is no help - if there are no restore points then there are no restore points. What happens next depends on exactly what you're trying to accomplish.

I have typed in the suggestion above to run the system restore but receive a message saying it has been turned off by group policy and I need to contact domain administrator. Who or what is that?

From one day to the next I have cannot connect to my DVD writer and my E:\drive had disappeared. At Startup yesterday I noticed a warning message at the bottom of the screen about changes made in my start up settings which I definately did not do - now I can't use/find my dvd/cd writer and one of my drives are gone. I tried a system restore but can only go back one month which made no difference at all.

Hello Leo!

I was searching around your site & I found this article that is close to home for me, too.

Marc is experiencing "error mess "SYSTEM RESTORE CANNOT RESTORE COMPUTER" "NO CHANGES MADE."
Larry Kamberg writes, "in every attempt it reports that Windows was not able to restore.... date selected... choose another restore point, etc."

I've had this same problem for literally months now!

I am not new to system restore... (maybe a little too familiar, lol!). I have always kept the box unchecked, and given it lots of space.
I'm one of those pc users who DOES research files and programs... and gets confused in the process.

My pattern is to usually say "what the hay.." and install (insert your nifty, exciting software here __) with my fingers crossed, hoping avast will save me from anything malicious, and System Restore can set everything right again.

Not so anymore. I get these exact messages.

Restore points ARE offered, I select the bold calendar date, and click.... then instead of the go-ahead I'm looking for, I get- " No Changes Made" with "Windows is unable to restore." and a "Select another date" option. And the cycle repeats(!) -. Once I tried EVERY restore point available.... Nada.
Yes, I have tried setting a new restore point~ no can do.
I bought an external hard drive to back up my system... can you help?

First note that System Restore is not a backup. You mention the external drive for backups, and that would be unrelated to System Restore. What you want to really utilize that external drive is something like Acronis or another true backup solution.

Given that System Restore does not restore everything people expect, even when it works, I strongly recommend not using it at all in favor of a true backup solution instead.

One reason is simply the scenario that you've encountered: it's not that uncommon, and I don't have good answer to get it working again for you.

Dear Leo..
I created my own restore point so that if anything happened I couls get back to where my plotter would work again...now i can't find the restore point that I created..can you tell me where windows keeps it or how I can find it again? I have been in the restore system program..but it will only let me go back a couple months..PLEASE help

Thanks a ton
Ron

System Restore does not keep restore points forever, even those you make yourself. Older restore points are removed to make room for newer ones.

I have no problem finding and using system restore but in every attempt it reports that Windows was not able to restore.... date selected... choose another restore point, etc. I have resorted to using a 3rd party program ERUNT and it works perfectly. Why does Windows Sys Restore no longer work - succeed?

This mess is for LEO or one of his techs. Please reply to above address ASAP. I need expert help. 2 questions or more follow--- the SYSTEM TOOLS file under PROGRAMS/ACCECORIES is "FOLDER IS EMPTY". I can open SYSTEM RESTORE by entering an "ADDRESS" into the RUN box. This opens RESTORE and functions as normal. When the desktop reappears, error mess "SYSTEM RESTORE CANNOT RESTORE COMPUTER" "NO CHANGES MADE". ! How do I get RESTORE to function again and 2 how do I put RESTORE in the EMPTY SYSTEM TOOLS FOLDER where it belongs? In the past I had to pay a tech to reload XP PRO. More money than I care to spend again. This issue is important to me because IE7 is experiencing som very strange behavior, meaning that the "RESULTS" page is displayed too far to the RIGHT. The site that a givin result represents is displayed correctly. OPERA and FIREFOX are NOT affected. I tried IE6 but the behavior remains. I think that restoreing the system to an earlier time, even to a point where I need to reload ALL my elective programs is acceptable to me. Please tell me in simple detail how to get RESTORE to work again. I am using this form because I do not see a contact link to LEO or the WEBMASTER as most sites provide,

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

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 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.

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.

hi there, i have used the system restore several times while trying to iron out several problems, however on completion of this i find my computer now runs about 1/2 as fast. Is this a common problem and is there any way to stop this?

Thanks

Richard

...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?

I`ve created a short-cut on the desktop for this, so it`s always available.
