Hello Shane - thank you but..........
yesterday I completely formatted my PC.
All is fine other than restore points which
for some reason cannot be created.
Have you any idea or is my computer
damaged?
Regards
Helen

Shane:
Its not working even after wiping and installing Windows fresh?

Shane

helenoftroy49:
No - I keep trying with the hope that it will help but nothing.

Shane:
Thats very odd for it not to work after a fresh install.

Give me some more information,

How did you do the reinstall? Did you just install over the current one or did you have the Windows setup format the drive first?
After you installed Windows what programs did you install?

Reason why on the software is some backup programs install vss writers that will cause vss not to work and system restore uses vss.

Thank you Shane.

I worked according to the instructions on my Windows 7 installation disc.

I also installed the usual programs:

Micrsoft word
CC Cleaner
Tuneup
Malwarebytes
Skype
and other stuff that I had before the problem

I do go to services and restart the VSS as it seems to disappear from time to time
