Hi, I have Win XP wiht SP2. When I turn off the laptop and turn it on again, the System Restore gets disabled (as ssen in My Computers ->Properties->System Restore->Turn off system restore) This happens every time I turn off my laptop. Is there any solution? Please let me know. Thanks, Shobhit
You must set the "Service" to "Automatic" here are some instructions. And a link to a M$ KB article about it. support.microsoft.com/kb/302796 Start the Group Policy Editor (gpedit.msc) Navigate to Computer Configuration/Administrative Templates/System/System Restore Set Turn off System Restore and Turn off Configuration to "Disable" Right click on My Computer and Select "Manage". Navigate to Services and Applications/Services Navigate to System Restore Service and double click On the General tab set [Startup Type] to "Automatic" using the drop down list Click the Start button to start the service. Close the Computer Management console Return to System Restore in Group Policy Editor and configure both to "Not Configured" Close Group Policy Editor and reboot the system. After the reboot is complete, right click My Computer, select Properties and the tab for System Restore will have been restored. Configure it to your individual needs.
