    Windows XP Pro : Can not Create a Restore point

    Hello,

    When I go to the System Restore window, I click Create a restore point, I click Next, I enter a description in the appropriate window, I click and create then the following message appears:

    "System Restore can not create a restore point. Restart the computer and restart System Restore."

    After several reboots I always have the same problem.

    I have verified that the option "disable System Restore" was not checked (System Restore tab of System Properties)

    In services.msc Service System Restore is also started.

    anybody would have an any idea?

    Thank you for your help.

    This problem can occur if the system registry is damaged.
