System Restore Error 0x80071a90 on Windows 7

Asked By Roger Blake 10 points N/A Posted on - 08/09/2011

I tried using System Restore this morning because of a sudden change occurred in my computer. But after the processing it gives me an error, the System Restore did not complete successfully.

System Restore did not complete successfully. Your computer's system files and settings were not changed.

Details: System Restore failed to replace the file (C:Windows) with its original copy from the restore point.

An unspecified error occurred during System Restore. (0x80071a90)

You can try System Restore again and choose a different restore point. If you continue to see this error, you can try an advanced recovery method. For more information, see What is Recovery?

I’ve tried to choose a different restore point as instructed by the message but still it gives me the same problem.

I don’t know what to do next.

Can someone help me how to deal with this error.

You Don't Need to Worry !

Basically What Happens.

When You Restore Your Computer it Use Some Checkpoints For That !

And If The Computer Does not Get Any Restore Point .

It Means That You Haven't Install Any Application Yet !

If your system restore does not start . You can use the troubleshooting to try to resolve your issue your issue. If you not comfortable with advance trouble shooting . You might ask for someone for help or contact support. ( you also need to scan your computer for virus. Maybe that's created a problem to restore your computer>

Two steps remain  in your mind .

1st step .

make sure that system restore services is running .

2nd

Make sure that the system restore is enabled on the drivers where you want system restore enabled.
