New Windows Repair "Beta" (System Restore) still a no-go for my Win7x64

(1/5) > >>

Bubba Euler:
Shane, I was anxious to try the new Windows Repair Beta section.  I thought it was :confused: OK for a while.  I watched Resource Monitor PID 4 and saw it start to eat up the HDD time-wise:  near 100% nearly all the time.  I think it stange that the list in the bottom section in Res Mon shows many / multiple Volume System Information files being read both Background and Normal at the same time.  Hmmm?  I wish I could figure out what's going on in there.  Ha!!!
 :confused:
   

Shane:
Make sure to post in the right section bud :-)

There is something messed up with your system restore that is for sure. The repair right now is just aimed at getting restore working. Have you tried to see how it does if you run it windows in safe mode for a while?

I haven't yet, but I will do it today after I get my work done.  I do enjoy troubleshooting.  I learn so much about my computer and get satisfaction from a successful tweak!

Thanks.

Started in Safe Mode:  System Restore worked normally!?!  The Resmon.exe showed 0 to 10% from PID 4 at random intervals.  The list showed only ONE Volume System Information file (except initially when there were three total, the other two with lesser access went away and never returned while I monitored it). 

Hope this helps you determine how System Restore works internally.

Shane:
Safe mode has less services and almost no programs running.

So now the question is, is it a service or program that is causing the problem?

When back in normal mode is it the same pid on each instance or is there a different PID?
