System Restore No Longer Working After Using Tweaking Windows.

(1/16) > >>

Novice22:
Can't even add manual restore point.
Error code Ox8000FFFF - Catastrophic Failure.
Windows Vista System.
Restore point created before running the programme not available either.

Boggin:
I've asked Shane to have a look at this for you just to let you know you haven't been ignored.

However, he's in the middle of building a number of computers for his customers so it may be a day so before he can get onto the forum.

Julian:
hmmmmm open and elevated cmd and type in
--- Code: ---vssadmin list providers
--- End code ---
and take a snapshot of what it shows you.

Shane:
My program doesnt touch system restore, but it does use some services. I havent had this problem with it before, so i did some looking up and that error can happen if any system files are messed up or missing so running sfc /scannow is a good idea

It can also happen if the volume shadow copies are messed up and need to be fixed, that is done by removing them and starting fresh and of course make sure the VSS or volume shadow copy service is running.

It can also happen if there are bad sectors on the drive, did you do a chkdsk on the drive yet?
