    Alternative way to access restore points?


    Hi My win version is 2004 OS Build 19041, 685
    Problem" since last update my magnification soft ZoomText 10.1 wont start anymore. Im visually impaired so i need said soft most urgently.
    Trying to install last ZoomText update again did nothing
    So I tries to use a restore point No dice.right click on won symbol and then on system gets me the grey loading screen with the cod symbol for a second or two then it scrolls to top of screen and disappears nothing else happens. Please let me know if there are other ways to start a restore to a certain point in time. Avast and malwarebytes both claim the system is clean so i have no clue what could have messed up the update

    :)

    How to delete inactive System Image Restore Points in System Restore

    Windows 10 64-bit.
    When I click "show more restore points" in System Restore I see a bunch of old "system image restore points" that were deleted in past and do not correspond to any currently active restore points. Clicking any of these old restore points, I simply get an error message saying they could not be found, and to select another restore point instead.I would like to delete these restore points listings but have been unable to do so.
    So far, I have tried steps mentioned below without any luck :

    Disk Cleanup through (CAlternative way to access restore points? :) Properties
    Disable System Protection (OFF and ON) in System Protection for OS (CAlternative way to access restore points? :)
    Disk Space Usage to minimum (slider button all the way to the left then 'Delete all restore points for this drive'),
    Delete all shown Restore points in CCleaner (the problem ones do not show here),
    Reset Windows Backup to Default in Windows 10 with 'Reset_Windows_Backup.bat' utility.

    Any suggestions highly welcome.

    Alternate way of restoring lost things?

    Hmm in a certain case, I lost/corrupted the Systems "Plug and Play Device Software enumerator", Thank goodness for system restore... Is there any other way of re-installing it? Except re-installing complete windows, due to the said devices' drivers corruption I get blue screens when trying to access certain devices on the pc, lol thank God for Sys restore
