    Backup and Restore utility become unstable


    Hello,
    got following issue as described in title without any reason. No major changes in OS been done since last fully functional back-up was run.
    And now Backup window gives me "no responding" title, but most importantly it gives me error code "0x80070578" (Invalid Window Handle) at 97% when backing up.
    Is there any way I can reinstall this build-in utility without reinstalling whole system ?

    Thanks in advance.
    Any help is appreciated.

    :)

    Backing up System restore point

    Click HERE for a step by step on how to backup your Restore Points.

    Please note: the tutorial is for Windows 7 but also works for Windows 10

    IMPORTANT: The reason your restore points are deleted is that when a big Windows update is installed system files are changed and if you restore on tom of the new files your system can become unstable!

    You could try a repair upgrade by downloading latest iso, double clicking on it and running setup.exe, selecting to keep all files and programs.
