    Windows System Restore for the 15,498th time.


    I understand this has been asked a few hundred times...


    I've been stuck at 'Please wait...' during a System Restore, it's been over an hour. The restore point I picked to go back to was 10 minutes into the past. I had reinstalled Internet Explorer under Programs and Features, and after my computer rebooted from that, all of my aliases for the command prompt stopped working, although my .bat file was in the same place and had not changed.


    How can it take over an hour to go back in time 10 minutes, when the only change was an install of Internet Explorer? A normal install or uninstall of Internet Explorer takes a few seconds and a restart and that's it. I've got work to do.


    There has got to be a better way guys. Come on.

    :)

    Windows XP PRO error after restore

    System restore is handy when it works like it did for me 2 days ago saving the need to reinstall all of my software as well as windows, id suggest using norton Ghost 12 for an excellent system restore feature.

    SYSTEM RESTORE

    Hello Angel,

    Windows 10 may have encountered a system conflict when it tried to perform a system restore. For us to better assist you on performing a system restore, kindly answer the following questions:

    • What is the make and model of your computer?
    • What is the exact error message are you getting? If possible can you send us a screenshot using the attach photo feature on your reply.
    • What is the current build and version of your Windows 10? To check type in
      winver on the search bar and press Enter.

    Meanwhile, for a walkthrough on how to perform a system restore, kindly follow the steps on this

    article     and see the section that says Restore from a system restore point.
    On another note, we also suggest that you check the Windows Defender settings and lower down the security if it is on high security. This can also be another issue why it is preventing an update to be installed.

    We'll be waiting for your reply.
