Restore does not work

[Guest Bob]

I have tried restore on everything from yesterday up to 2 months ago, each

time when I boot back to the desktop I get the same message - "your computer

can not be restored to (the date I chose)"

 

What in the world would cause restore not to work?? All help appreciated.

The restore profiles may be corrupted.

 

If your machine is otherwise working OK

 

turn off system restore

 

reboot

 

then turn it back on.

 

My advice would be to turn it on for only your "system" drive

if you have several drives or partitions
