Hello,
Windows Ver 2004
I think System Restore was disabled using a McAfee product my internet provider gives us access to with our subscription. I think because I found registry keys with a McAfee tag that looked like it was disabling SR. I also found I think are Windows registry keys doing the same. In any case I have uninstalled McAfee using Revo Uninstaller, and also used McAfee's uninstaller to finish anything that Revo may have missed.
I still find McAfee registry entries, but nothing I can attribute to System Restore. System Restore returns an error code 0x81000203.
This is the same error code I got when McAfee was installed.
I have searched the internet and this site for solutions and nothing has restored SR to working. I understand the argument that antivirus software disable SR because virus' hide in restore point folders etc., but once you uninstall the software, how do you get the feature back?
I did get to SR in Safe Mode, but apparently don't have any restore points and it wouldn't create a new one.
