Can't create restore points

(1/1)

Frustrated:

Oh help, please !

I can no longer create Restore Points, nor does System Restore automatically create them.  Get "catastrophic error" -- yet task scheduler shows they are created.

My system:  Vista Home Premium x64.  Only using Microsoft Security Essentials for AV and Windows Firewall.

Any ideas ?  I don't relish having to do a system recovery.  Thanks.

(FWIW, I did NOT mean to hijack someone else's post -- sorry.)

Shane:
What is making that vbs file? Can you go grab it and post it for me?

Frustrated:
Sorry, I don't have any option now of "open with" for that .vbs file.  I found it about 6 months ago somewhere on the internet.

However, when I try to manually create a restore point, this is the "catastrophic error" I'm receiving.

Frustrated:
One added thing:  In system protection, Vista HP indicates that restore points are turned OFF.  However, in Services the Volume Shadow Copy is on.

Shane:
Did you go to the properties of the system, the system restore tab and make sure it is turned on?
