    System restore have been running for more than 2 hours


    I had problems with my Microsoft outlook. The signature in the outlook was unresponsive, I then by accident uninstalled the Microsoft Office and tried to fix the problem by doing a system restore.

    The system restore point was selected and everything run smoothly, but now its been over 2 hours and its still stuck with the system restore screen, restoring registry.....

    Should I leave it and hope and pray that it finish or what must I do?

    :)

    Windows system restore - taking 2 hours plus ?


    Tried a system restore on 2 occasions today.

    First session ran for over 2hrs with the screen saying "Please wait while etc etc".

    Read that if runs more than an hour it may be frozen and suggests a hard reset of the device.

    The second session is doing the same restoring for 2 hours plus.

    Is this expected or an error/fault somewhere on the system causing it run more than an hour etc.

    System Restore Taking 2 Hours

    HELP! Yesterday after installing Office 365 on my computer I started having blue screen of doom - and errors below 1. Service_Exception_cld... I researched and MS community suggested that I turn on Driver Verifier. I did that and during the night my
    computer crashed. However, when I went to restart I got the following errors IRQL_Not_Less And then it would just endless loop through your computer shut down and needs to restart - there is an error, needs to restart.... So I selected system restore. That
    was 2 hours ago. It has been scrolling (the bar is moving) on "Restoring Files" for 2 hours now. What do I do? Is it legit still running the system restore because the scroll bar is still moving, or is it locked up? How long should this take? What do
    I do if it locks up - can I reboot and will it start again or do I have to take this to a computer store. The Dell desktop I'm working on is only 2.5 weeks old. I've researched and can't find anything on how long a Windows 10 restore should take, and nothing
    other than hope you have the backup disks for rebooting in the middle of the restore - which I don't have because everything came preloaded!
