System Restore problem - Windows 7 (yet again!!)

<< < (3/5) > >>

barryman:
I have just found the screen for Creating new user account. It is asking me to create either Standard Account or Administrator a/c. Which one should I do? At the moment I think I currently have an Admin account set up as any programs I install have to be "Run as administrator" so, if I set up a new account, will I be able to delete it again as I do not want to change what I have at present.

Also, before I got your last posting, I did a restore from my last System Image, hoping that the System Restore function was working on that. Alas, not!! The COM+ is still not starting and SR still not working.

Create an admin user and yes, you can delete it afterwards also no need to delete your current user account
btw im not affiliated to this site... Im just trying to help out coz ive done this new user thing once before

barryman:
OK - I created new user profile, tried everything...all still the same. No Sys Restore and also still cannot start COM+ System application.

I think I may have to rely on System Images and just do them a bit more regularly to keep up with any program additions/changes etc. unless you can think of anything else to try.

BTW I really appreciate your assistance in trying to help me.

Aha my Knowledge ends here sadly.. Let Shane Pop up and give the Problem a try, he'll probably come up with some other way..

barryman:
One last thought before I give up and learn to live without System Restore -

Apparently there is a file called dllhost.exe in the Windows\System32 folder that controls all the Com+ functions etc. Supposing mine was somehow defective or just corrupted - can I download a copy of dllhost.exe for my Windows 7 Ultimate 32 bit version. I have searched the Windows program disk that I had but I cannot locate that file.

Could this file be causing problem and can it be reinstalled?? (if so where do I get a copy)
