Unable To Use Instant Restore Point?

Aug 28, 2015

I was able to use Instant_Restore_Point under Win 8 (worked great), which I found here: [URL]

But I can't get it to run under Win 10, even after adding (in the appropriate place) these lines:

If instr(objOS.Caption, "Windows 10") Then
GetOS = "Windows 10"

And making the adjustment:If GetOS = "Windows 8" Or GetOS = "Windows 10" Then

How can I get this script to work?

Performance :: System Restore Point Configure

Dec 9, 2015

New desktop computer - Windows 10 Home. In System Restore, Configure, the Max Usage slider is all the way to the left.What does that mean?The hard drive is 1 TB, so I'm not concerned about how much it uses.(On my old Windows 7 desktop, I moved the slider to the right and it now saves fewer restore points.)

Installation :: Create System Restore Point?

Dec 30, 2015

After the recent (automatic) upgrade to windows 10 ( I have been running windows 10 for months), I can sign in to windows 10 but the desktop that appears with my sign in is something foreign and all my files, pictures and videos are NOT in any folders under Documents. So I thought I would go back to a restore point but am a bit afraid to since I cannot find a Restore file and I don't know how Microsoft and windows 10 works in this are or if my files are included in the automatic backup by the "system restore point" process. Then I thought I should, on my other windows 10 laptops, "create" a restore point from time to time as I feel is needed.

Performance :: Any Way To Save One Specific Restore Point

Feb 10, 2016

I have restore point space limited to 2Gigs on my Tablet. I've noticed that when a new restore point is created at the top of the list, an old one is removed from the bottom of the list. Sooner or later, I will end up with totally new restore points. Is there a way to save one specific restore point, and not loose it? (without actually backing up (not an option on my Tablet) ).

Installation :: Restore To Earlier Point In Time

Nov 29, 2015

I set tried to set up the mail app. I was not suscessful. Would not sync. No mail from Outlook. I read how to delete the mail app and reinstall it from the shop. I ran the program to do that and it work. It removed the Mal and calendar app.

When I tried to go to the shop app, and down load the current mail app, as instructed, the shop will only stay open 3 seconds and then it will close. I rebooted the computer several times, no avail.

My question is how do I restore my computer to just before I removed the mail app.

Settings Grayed Out After Using System Restore Point

Aug 31, 2015

After restoring my computer back two days using System Restore, I noticed in PC Settings>Personalization>Start>Choose which folders appear on Start, that all the options are greyed out except "Settings". I was wondering if there was a way to fix this? I already tried SFC /Scannow and DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth, but neither fixed the problem.

No System Restore Point Created During Microsoft Update

Aug 6, 2015

I upgraded from Win 7 to Win 10 this past week. All is well except for one thing. I received an update from Microsoft yesterday (Cumulative Update for Win 10 - KB3081424) and noted during the installation that no restore point was created. System Protection is ON and I am able to create restore points manually. Thus, this is only a minor annoyance since I can successfully create these points on my own. However, I would prefer for the system to do so when important updates from Microsoft come down. I guess it is possible that the update referenced above did not generate such a point but found that unusual since it is listed as a Cumulative Update.

Performance :: Scheduling System Restore Point Creation

Oct 11, 2015

I see that Win10 has deleted the function to schedule the creation of restore points! Supposedly it creates a new restore point before downloading updates (if the function is turned on; by default it is off!).

I like to schedule the creation of points every few days or each week to prevent viruses from corrupting things. This feature is so important; I can't believe they have hidden it, made it less functional, and turned it off by default!

Is there any way to run the creation button from the task scheduler or something to automatically schedule restore point creation?

Performance :: Restore Point - Property Page Error

Nov 29, 2015

When I manually try and make a restore point using the windows program it ends with a property page error.

It still does the restore point ok and seems to work all right if I need to use that point to restore.

No error notifications pop up using the System Restore Point shortcut tool or when system does a restore point when adding new programs or drivers.

So my best guess is the error is showing up because this page is open

Does it on two machines running Home 10586.14

Lumia 730 Unable To Restore Backup Data From OneDrive?

Apr 22, 2015

Why is my Lumia 730 with Windows 10 Technical Preview unable to Restore backup data from OneDrive? Today I received an update from Windows Insider Program. Before installing it, I Backed up my phone data (Lumia Denim) to OneDrive. Then downloaded and installed the update, and now my phone is having Windows 10 Technical Preview. Although it was installed successfully, still I found some bug in the Flight Mode option . Flight Mode was ON and I couldn't turn it OFF. So I tried RESET MY PHONE.

While resetting my phone, it asked whether I would like to restore from the already Backed up data from OneDrive. I selected YES, but after successfully restoring data up to 20% the phone notified me that UNABLE TO VERIFY YOUR ACCOUNT. I repeated the process thrice with no solution. My phone is working phone, but I need the backed up data, mainly the contact list from the backed up data at OneDrive. How I could get my contact list back from back up without RESETTING THE PHONE. [No issues with my Internet connection]

Performance :: Errors In Raxco Instant Recovery

Oct 31, 2015

I upgraded to WIN10 from WIN7. I use Raxco Instant Recovery to make snapshots of WIN10 in this case. I'm on the main snapshot, and I created a copy called the 2nd snapshot, which I can revert to, to save my bacon if need be. I discovered upon completion of updating the main snapshot to the second snapshot, that there were 1,974 errors in the process shown in the log. WIN10 seems to run OK for the most part.

Later I had to boot to the second snapshot because I had a problem with the task bar not responding on two occasions in the first snapshot. After booting in the second snapshot, I copied it to the first snapshot to eliminate the problem, and at the end, it showed 2,125 errors in the log. My question is, if these errors are just crap that migrated during the upgrade from WIN7 to 10 or do you think there are legitimate errors in my WIN10?

Upgrade - No Raxco Instant Recovery Boot Up Progress Bar

I just upgraded to win10. at boot up, my raxco instant recovery app is supposed to initiate a progress bar that gives you 10 seconds to click f1 in case you are having a problem, and you can retreat to a different snapshot. The progress bar isn't materializing. How I can correct this. I didn't have this problem in win7.

Crash / Instant Reboot When Watching Online Video ( Twitch / Youtube)

Sep 9, 2015

My Win10 computer is crashing predominantly when watching Twitch.tv (flash). The crash involves the screen freezing and any audio currently occuring, looping, and then the pc will reboot itself. There is no BSOD.

The crashes only seem to happen playing online video media but don't immediately appear to have an immediate trigger. Mostly they were happening when I had a fullscreen application (game) running on 1 screen and a chrome window open on the 2nd monitor with a twitch stream playing. However the crashes have happened without a fullscreen app running and just browsing the web or local files with Twitch/youtube running. If I notice a more specific trigger I will post it.

It wont crash with media playing from file.

This started happening 4 or 5 days ago and have been using Win 10 for around a month or more.

My first reaction was to try reinstalling audio (asus xonar d2x) and video (nvidia) drivers. The crashes still occured.

I tried reinstalling chrome, thinking perhaps there was a problem with the inbuilt flash codec. Crashes still occured.

I performed a "reset" on the Windows 10 install today, thinking it was probably a deeper problem and a "fresh" os install would work. After reinstalling drivers and programs I have had another identical crash to before the os "reset".

Ps. since the "reset" of the Win 10 OS I have had 1 crash and it did not produce a minidump file because there was no BSOD/error message.

Apps :: System Restore Doesn't Restore Uninstalled Software

Dec 16, 2015

Maybe I have a misunderstanding of how System Restore works. Yesterday I uninstalled a program that I'd like to now get back. The company that made the program no longer offers archive downloads for that program in particular. Today it occurred to me that I could do a System Restore to when the program was still on this laptop & all would be returned as it was.

The first 2 times I tried was a total fail for returning the program but when I went back to a week ago it was there. Something is missing & it errors asking for the old install software that doesn't exist anymore (the program was purchased it 2008).

Performance :: Restore Does Not Indicate Correct Drive For Source Of Restore

Dec 16, 2015

I have recently had to re-install Windows 10 and had problems before so decided this time to do a clean install and then run the system image backup. This went well but when it came to the testing of the restore a problem arose. I was using the Repair Disc created after the system image backup completed and could not understand the source file indicated was not where I had put the backup.
The restore said the file was on the C: drive which was what I was trying to restore to.
