Ultimate complete pc restore doesn't restore all files! by Dreamsayer
I performed a completed PC backup on restore image because I wanted to test out Vista 64 on my computer over the weekend. After playing with 64, I decided I wanted to go back to 32 bit Vista. So I did a restore of my computer by booting off the Vista CD and restoring my system. Ran without a hitch.

Ever since then no matter what I've always got a sort of white fog at the top of my screen. It's there when it's black for the screen saver and it's there when I'm working on my computer kind of washing out the top of the screen a little. It's extremely annoying. ...

Hi I have recently received several messages when trying to download software (e.g. iTunes) that "The system administrator has set policies to prevent this installation". I am running windows vista home premium and I am set as the administrator (with no other users registered).

Vista system restore file exclusion by mike4321
I am attempting to prevent system restore from backing up anything with the file extension .dtt. If I create a restore point when the system does not have any .dtt files and later use that restore point, any files with the .dtt extension are removed. Is there any way to stop system restore from backing up .dtt files?
