System Restore

Pobby

I get an error message 0x81000203 when trying to use. Have tried a number of fixes to no avail.

Anyone know of a free 3rd party piece of software that I could use instead?

Thanks for reading.

Have you tried restoring in safe mode?

What is the problem you have that you want to perform a system restore for?

Robisere

What operating system are you using? (Windows XP, 7, 8?)
Why did you need System Restore, diod you have a problem, if so what happened?

If 7: Click Start - Help & Support - type "Error Codes" in the Search Box, read the info, use it to find the code and what it is/does.

Download these files and save them to your desktop.

SharedAccess.reg

iphlpsvc.reg

After downloading, double click each one in turn. Allow/ok any prompts, then reboot.

Let me know when you've done that.

Waddler, thanks. I am getting a message stating that the file does not have a program associated to it.
