How To Restore...System Restore. This has worked for me many times

Solution

1. Right click on My Computer\Right Click Properties\System Protection\System Protection Tab\ If you see, “Searching...” instead of, “C: (‘C’ drive)” – verifies the problem
2: Must verify that the 2 files, which causes the Restore Problems are set-up correctly. Microsoft Shadow Copy Provider - Needs to be set to "Automatic" Volume Shadow Copy - Must be set to "Automatic"
3: Close all opened applications on the Desktop.
4: Start\Run\Services\click on Enter
5: Open up the Services Window
6: Look for "Microsoft software Shadow Copy Provider=Startup Type="Disabled"\Right Click\Properties\Startup type= "Automatic"\Apply\Start (wait until finish)\OK
8: Find: Volume Shadow Copy = \Startup Type = "Disabled"\Change to "Automatic"\Right Click \Properties\Startup type="Automatic"\Apply\Start (wait until finish)\OK
Then to end: Top right hand corner nearby Services the top row (right click)\Close
9. All Done.

(Fix Your System Restore Error by following these Directions):

1: Start (bottom left hand corner (red, yellow, green and blue flag in a circle of the Task Bar))
A: \Computer\Right Click Properties\System Protection \System Protection Tab\
B: If you see, “Searching...” instead of, “C: (‘C’ drive)” – verifies a problem

2: Must verify that the 2 files, which causes the Restore Problems are set-up correctly
A: Microsoft Shadow Copy Provider - Needs to be set to "Automatic"
B: Volume Shadow Copy - Must be set to "Automatic"

3: Closed all opened applications on my Desktop (monitor).

4: Start\Run\Services\Enter
A: Alternately: Place, “Services” (without quotes) into Start\Run (box) and press < Enter >
5: Opens up the Services Window
A: Name (Maximize)
6: Find: "Microsoft software Shadow Copy Provider=Startup Type="Disabled"\Right Click\Properties
\Startup type= "Automatic"\Apply\Start (wait until finish)\OK

7:
A: I was going to skip this section, because, "Volume Shadow Copy" was already set to, "Automatic"
1. But, in the past, working with Microsoft's Technicians including Research-it may still be corrupted.
2. Therefore, I shall continue with 8: B:
B: Find: Volume Shadow Copy = \Startup Type = "Disabled"\Change to "Automatic"\Right Click \Properties\Startup type="Automatic"\Apply\Start (wait until finish)\OK
C: Then to end: Top right hand corner nearby Services the top row (right click)\Close

D: Test Restore Point: Start\Right Click Computer\Properties\System Protection \System Protection Tab\
1. There was a delay when, "Searching..." was being displayed,
2. But, luckily before I ended the process (Nothing to lose)
3. It now shows me; 1: New Volume (E:\ off) and 2: Local Disk (C: \ System Protection= on).

E: I shall now try to turn on E:\ 2TB HDD, (despite it is presently empty),
1. Until, I transfer data e.g. word documents from C:\ SSD to E:\
2. Select New Volume (E :\) - (turns blue)
a. I must change,
1} "Turn off System Protection" to
2} "Restore System Settings and Previous"
A} I left it at 10%, (because I have plenty of space)\Apply\OK.
b. It reverts me back to
1} System Properties\System Protection Tab and
2} E:\ 2 TB HDD Protection is switched on, which is excellent.

F: I shall now check the C:\ SSD (Solid State Drive)
1. Select: Restore system settings and previous versions of files
2. \within System Properties\ System Protection\Protection Settings
a. C: Select Local Disk (C (System) - (Turns blue)
b. Configure\40% Max Usage
1} But, 1% to 10% maybe enough for most users
2} \Apply\OK
3. I, Forgot to create, "Restore Points"
a. C:\Select Local Disk C:\Create
b. Within: Create a restore point insert description
1} For example, “Problem - Create C:\ 1st Restore Point”
2} < Create >
3} After process, luckily, “The restore point was created successfully."
4} < Closed >

G: I then repeated for E:\.
1. < OK > Close System Properties
H: < X > Close Control Panel

I: I shall now carry out a Cold boot-up
1. Shut down computer, and when the computer is switched, off then
2. Switched the computer back on again to verify that Restore now works properly.

J: Verify System Restore is still working properly:
1. Start (bottom left hand corner (red, yellow, green and blue flag in a circle of the Task Bar))
a. \Computer\Right Click Properties\System Protection \System Protection Tab\
b. \In The Protection Settings:
1} It should show all the internal hard drives in the computer
For example to verify C:\ working properly either
A} Check Restore Points already created either
1: < System Restore > within System
A: Start\right click Computer\Properties
B: \System Properties\System Protection\System\System Restore\Next or
2: Start\Run\System Restore\Enter (OK)
B} Create a new Restore Points -
1: Start\right click Computer\Properties
2: \System Properties\System Protection\Create
A: Enter description for the restore point created
B: < Created >
C: < Closed >

K: Must find 2 files (check at least once a week):
1. MS Shadow Copy Provider = Needs to be set to "Automatic"
2. Volume Shadow Copy = must be set to "Automatic"

L: Best practice with any computer file/folder etcetera saved
a. Save-open-Verify data is correct-before saving again.
