What exactly do you see when you open the System Restore applet? Start |
Programs | Accessories | System Tools | System Restore. Knowing what you
do see could help those who might be able to help you. How have you been
using system restore to restore your system? For example how do you
launch it and from where? Are you saying that the System Restore GUI has
a radio button for "Restore my computer to an earlier time" but not one
immediately below it labelled "Create a restore point"?

Help, my WinME System Restore has no 'Create a Restore Point'
option...

I know this is incredibly late to notice but it is true. I see no
option to (manually) create a Restore Point. I do get "automatic"
creation of restore points usually once a day, occasionally twice,
occasionally none. I thought that was a bit odd but it has "worked"
for me so far. In thelast 3 months I have used Restore points 3 or 4
times to recover from odd ball system (Near Death Experience) behavior

I finally got to checking Andy Rathbone's Microsoft Windows Me For
DUMMIES, both volumes, and it is pretty clear that I should.

In the first 5 or more years I've been using this computer I rarely if
at all (deliberately) used it. Now I find it indispensable and I would
like more control over the making and deleting of my Restore Points.

Anybody heard of this problem? Is this fixable with just editing the
registry? What is it's module name / cab file ? ??

Thank you very very much.
