Re: Can not create a system restore point Manually

 

you can make them

via safemode as well.

 

but if you are also

having trouble with

your connection going

down, then there could

be other issues involved.

 

thus making a system restore

point will only preserve

the problems which wouldn't

be a smart thing to do;

 

unless you are planning to fix

what is ailing your windows

and the restore point you want

to make is for a temporary

safety measure to revert to.

RE: Can not create a system restore point Manually

 

I sent a email toMicrosoft Help and waiting for a reply before I will try to

go back to a othere date. I am scared of causing a major trouble if I do so.

I also for got to mention I have Norton 2007 Internet security. I know I have

to shut down part of Norton when I go back to a othere date to to a RESTORE.

Re: Can not create a system restore point Manually

 

I don't think System Restore can make a restore point in Safe Mode.

Volsnap.sys is not loaded in Safe Mode. You can only retore to a restore

point but I don't think you can make one.

Re: Can not create a system restore point Manually

 

thanks for your response,

 

i was boggled whether or not

to suggest and explain the

windows repair method that

might repair the ailing system

and automatically create a

restore point as well.

 

you are correct about that

limitation and your intuitive

and polite clarification is

sincerely appreciated.

I am aware of this site. I will wait till I hear from Microsoft up-date to

see if there was a problem in there Up-date. This has happened before with

them in a other computer and they admitted there was a problem. It took them

quite a while till we fixed it as othere people had the same problem with

that up-date.

Re: Can not create a system restore point Manually

 

HI all ,

just to let you know Microsoft Help has not replied after my last

email re trouble. Right now I can not go back to a other good restore date

previous to all these troubles. I have Norton 2007 and even with that shut

down I can not go to other date for a restore. I even tried to do a security

down load and all what happened my computer just hung up and did nothing with

the install. Just a bit of a bar showing installing and that was it. If I can

go back to a other date a I hope all will work.

Any IDEAS out there with system restore to a other date. I show nothing

shut off for system restore in my computer.

Re: Can not create a system restore point Manually

 

norton seems to contribute

to issues. i would go to the

norton website and uninstall

exactly as they say. then see

if the issue is resolved.

 

if the issue is resolved, then you might

check with norton to see how

to configure it's software to

accommodate your needs before

reinstalling it.

 

a word of caution, do not

uninstall norton via add/remove

programs.

 

go to norton and get the exact

procedure because it is a "highly

integrated" software.

Boot into Safe Mode and try running System Restore from there. Use a restore

point just before the update was installed.
