I want to create system restore

Hi,

First of all you need to make sure that you are logged in as administrator. Only then you will be able to create restore points for your machine. Secondly you need to make sure that you have installed the most recent updates for your copy of windows from Microsoft website.

This was a bug and was fixed by Microsoft some time ago. You can download and install the hotfix after downloading from here: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/904423/you-may-receive-an-0x80070005-access-is-denied-error-message-when-you

Do restart your computer after installation and try restoring.

Good luck

I will tell you how to set a system restore point using notepad or any other text editor. Open Notepad or any other text editor. Type the three lines below in the Notepad. You can copy and paste from here.

Set IRP = getobject("winmgmts:\.rootdefault:Systemrestore")  

strDescription = InputBox("Restore point description: ","My Restore Point")

MYRP = IRP.createrestorepoint (strDescription, 0, 100)

You have to save this file like SetRestorePoint.vbs. If you want to set a restore point, just double click on the SetRestorePoint.vbs file. Then you have to name your restore point. A few second later a new restore point will be created.
