Windows 10: System Restore Failure 0x80070091

Im stuck in BSODBlue Screen of Death with the error: page fault in nonpaged area error code: 47453581.SYS.


I've done everything to try to fix this but nothing works. So i thought i'd give system restore a go. I have a restore point from 18hours ago, and when i try to use it, it gives me a error code, 0x80070091. Something along the lines of "It didnt work replacing the file D:\Recycle.Bin\...


I need help ASAP any help or tips would be highly appreciated.

:)

System Restore error 0x80070091

One of our laptops have this issue ever since the Anniversary update. Haven't tried yet on the new Creators update. Have you tried using it on the new update?

The best way to get attention is by posting this in the
Feedback hub.

There's a long thread about it on another forum with some solutions working for some people (but a lot of them are technical). If you are comfortable with the steps, might be worth taking a shot

An unspecified error occured during System Restore. (0x80070091)

Hi, as you will probably have seen if you searched the forum for that error number I started a thread on this topic which runs to >15 pages now. That alone suggests there's no easy fix- unless there is one listed there now.

For me, waiting a few weeks and trying again happened to work.

The simple solution, as system restore can fail for a variety of reasons, is not to use it. Instead, use a 3rd party roll-back program if you wish to, although using those can introduce complexities in normal Windows maintenance, that being the closest you'll get to system restore (e.g. Rollback RX maybe - I simply quote it as an example).

The option we strongly and repeatedly recommend- which is much more complete, but not equivalent to system restore, is to routinely use disk imaging e.g. Macrium Reflect (free).

That can help even if your PC is unbootable (other than hardware failures excluding disk failures); if your disk fails or becomes infected with ransomware.
