How to Reinstall System Restore
The
System Restore
feature in Windows
XP is a great one -
but sometimes it
quits working
properly (or at
all). In this case,
you may need to
reinstall it. Here's
how:
- Click Start
| Run.
- In the Run
box, type %Windir%\INF.
This should open
your WINDOWS
directory to the
INF folder.
- Find a file
named SR.INF (if
you have
Explorer
configured to
hide common file
extensions, it
may display as
SR).
- Right click
the SR.INF file
and select
Install. Windows
may prompt you
for your Windows
installation
source path. If
you have service
packs installed,
point it to the
%Windir%\ServicePackFiles
folder.
After the System
Restore files are
reinstalled, restart
Windows.
Important note: this
process will remove
any existing system
restore points. |
