• You lost this function from your windows?
• If you right-click on “my computer” and select “properties” you no longer see the system Restore tab init?
• Open start –> Run –> services.msc the System Restore listed there is in ‘Stopped’ mode?
• If you reactivate it by pressing ‘Start’ button, it will show some error message ‘Folder is not empty’
• If you use this function to do a backup, you aren’t find the function in the windows system?
