Re-Enabling System Restore
One of the tips that was
widely circulated on the net when XP Professional was first released
involved disabling System Restore via Group Policy Editor. It
certainly works, but a problem arises if you want to re-enable
System Restore at a later date. There is no option to re-enable it
again. To do so:
Start
the Group Policy Editor (gpedit.msc)
Navigate to Computer Configuration/Administrative
Templates/System/System Restore
Set Turn off System Restore and Turn off Configuration to Disable
Right click on My Computer and Select Manage
Navigate to Services and Applications/Services
Navigate to System Restore Service and double click
On the General tab set [Startup Type] to Automatic using the drop
down list
Click the Start button to start the service
Close the Computer Management console
Return to System Restore in Group Policy Editor and configure both
to Not Configured
Close Group Policy Editor and reboot the system.
After the reboot
is complete, right click My Computer, select Properties and the tab
for System Restore will have been restored. Configure it to your
individual needs and satisfaction.
