Windows 10: Why are Automatic System Restore points not being created on my windows 10 pc?

Why are Automatic System Restore points not being created on my windows 10 pc?

:)

 

System restore point automatic create not working....need help.

Were you seeing CAPI2 errors with Macrium & System Restore.

And after enabling system protection.
1) Does System Protection automatically create and populate checkpoints to list.
Does System Protection create restore points when called by a program and populate checkpoints to list.

2) I'd like to confirm whether my issue is unique to me or common.
My issue is that I can manually create restore points okay and those manual created will populate to my list.
Automatic restore points do not populate to my list. Albeit, Task Scheduler shows Last Run time change.
Automatic restore points do not populate to my list e.g., with Windows Updates.
When create restore point is called by a program. I see activity that suggest restore point is being created ...but, again the activity does not translate to an entry in my list.

Seeking A Means To Create Automatically Windows System Restore Points.

Hi, from the extensive tutorial list- here's a searchable list to bookmark:
Windows 10 Tutorial Index

see:
Automatically Create System Restore Point on Schedule in Windows 10
(I have this set up on this laptop- differently done on another)

Options in creating a scheduled task address this:

FYI:
Automatically Create System Restore Point at Startup in Windows 10
Add Create Restore Point Context Menu in Windows 10
Create System Restore Point shortcut in Windows 10

(2) - no idea, sorry.

Please note: restoring is unpredictable. Some here have given up on SR: I found it useful recently when it worked.
One user said restoring reported it had failed to complete successfully, but in practice had fixed the problem.
