Used Space 4.13 GB Free Space 8.11 GB SR Space Allocated 460MB It automatically deletes the all SR points without any warning or any error message. I have tried by clearing and resetting but no luck. Any help would be appreciated. |

AAH,
More information required. For example when are the SR checkpoints being deleted? On boot up or at some other time? What changes have you made to your system since system restore was working correctly? Can you still create a manual checkpoint? If you reboot after making a manual checkpoint is the checkpoint retained? Can you restore to a manual checkpoint you made earlier? -- Mike Maltby AAH wrote: C:\ Total Space 12.2 GB Used Space 4.13 GB Free Space 8.11 GB SR Space Allocated 460MB It automatically deletes the all SR points without any warning or any error message.

WHEN does it clear the SR points?
WHAT AV do you have installed? ARE YOU running any other OS in a dual-boot configuration? ARE YOU using any registry cleaners? -- Noel Paton (MVP 2002-2006) (CrashFixPC) Nil Carborundum Illegitemi http://www.crashfixpc.co.uk "AAH" wrote in message ...

What It could be either on bootup or shutdown Cannot 100 percent pinpoint. changes have you made to your system since system restore was working correctly? NO Changes. The only thing I do once a week is to restopre the rbxxx.cab file The only software which may cause some irritation is to my memory -- SUPERAntiSpyware--- Can you still create a manual checkpoint? If you reboot after making a manual checkpoint is the checkpoint retained? Can you restore to a manual checkpoint you made earlier? On reset it creates the point during the first boot. and any manual point remains in tact during the boot process. Both type of points can be restored but very slow. -- Mike Maltby AAH wrote: C:\ Total Space 12.2 GB Used Space 4.13 GB Free Space 8.11 GB SR Space Allocated 460MB It automatically deletes the all SR points without any warning or any error message.

Computer is protected by the manufacturer with Norman Data Defence System. It is old version but worked fine. In the past also F-Prot but at present none. ARE YOU running any other OS in a dual-boot configuration? No ARE YOU using any registry cleaners? Yes CleanReg3 old version. This has been on for a very very lon time. The only software ---SUPERAntiSpyware --- may need some attention or discontinue it? -- Noel Paton (MVP 2002-2006) (CrashFixPC) Nil Carborundum Illegitemi http://www.crashfixpc.co.uk "AAH" wrote in message ...

Hmmm - assuming that Norman hasn't upgraded (rather than just updated)
itself, then I'd be VERY surprised if the AV protection you're getting is anything like adequate! I've never actually seen Norman running, but I also can't recall any instances of it causing problems in ME..... The Norman website doesn't even acknowledge that 'Norman Data Defence System' exists, so when was your last AV update?? ....All of which is beside the point - which is to get SR working properly again! CleanReg3 seems to be fairly innocuous as registry cleaners go - but it still isn't worth the paper it's written on - so I'd dump it (what do you use it for?), even though I can't see it causing your current problems. ....I'll have to come back to you Noel "AAH" wrote in message ...
