I brought my latest OcUK machine about a year ago, put Windows 7 on it, and never had to do a System Restore until about a month ago.

After a month of twiddling around, it keeps happening every time I try one.

I apologise that I have not got a copy of exactly what the message is.

It (no surprises here) tells me that there were errors, and that nothing has changed.

As a result my PC is getting less and less like I want it (because I can't annihilate slip-ups by restoring past them).

I done the disk clean up method (where you get rid of all the restore points) many times; to no avail.

Please help me.

Best regards
 
Try running the system file checker from an Admin command prompt and typing sfc /scannow then when finished restart and try again. What is the issue anyway that you are trying to solve with a system restore?
 
The initial problem was regarding thumbnails going totally haywire for no reason whatsoever.

The PC just became convinced that all my MP3s were from the same album (!), so the thumbnail designated for almost every track became this graphic.

Nothing that anyone suggested worked (other forums as well). So I wanted to just go back to before whatever happened happened.

I have had to disable my thumbnails as the problem is still there (and it makes my blood boil).
