    In post 26 there were steps listed to fix the operating system corruption.
    Are you able to follow them?

    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.
