Hi, I can create restore points but when I try to restore to a previous
point, always get the message: "System Restore did not complete succesfully. An unspecified error occurred ........" How can I fix System Restore?

System Restore
What firewall, anti-virus application or security suite is installed? There are some that cause problems which do not appear immediately. "Salvador" wrote in message ...

If both work , then you know the reason. -- davidjchuang

System Restore
hi again, apparently the problem is the Norton antivirus, I replaced it with
Panda and deleted most of the files from Norton but there are still some that I can`t delete. Any ideas how I could do it?

Now try to delete. If successful that's the end of it. If not you might have to enable the real built-in administrator to do the job. Fot that , go to Vista Tutorials, choose Account. Shawn aka Brink has an excellent tutorial to show you how. Please reply again afterwards. Thank you. -- davidjchuang

System Restore
I have heard that Norton does not like to be uninstalled. However, there is
a utility at Symantec that will eradicate the culprit. -- ---------- Madness takes its toll. Please have exact change. ---------- "davidjchuang" wrote in message ...

Removal Tool but the system restore keep giving the same mesage, however I found that doin the restore operation in the Safe Mode my System Restore works fine. Thanks to everyone.
