Sangeeta, thanks for the reply. I tried that and it opens the System Restore Window, and it says "System Restore is Turned Off". And I CAN NOT turn it ON. Even went into the Registry

:HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows NT\SystemRestore

And the last "SystemRestore" entry was missing from my Registry. Can I add it?

Sincerely,

Raf.
