    Windows 10 1709 System Restore problems...

    That seems to be an attempt at Option 2 in the tutorial, which requires you to
    a. Boot to a command prompt (Did you?)
    b. You then seem to be mixing steps 3,4 and 5, thus your command is incorrect.

    I suggest Option 1 is easier.

    If you still have problems, please repost listing each specific step and saying which option from the tutorial you are using. Thanks.

    This reply did seem to temporarily fix the problem for a few days, but it has returned.

    Looking at the FAQ's this seems to be a problem that affects a few users. Will there be a "fix" available soon from MS ?

    My other PC is running Windows 7 and doesn't have any problems at all, this PC was previously running Windows 8.1 and also did not have any problems. From this I am assuming that the problems lies within Windows 10.

    Looking forward to your reply.

    Many thanks

    Andy
