I tried to do a System Restore and can't do it. I get this error message.

System Restore has been turned off by Group Policy. To turn on System Restore contact your domain administrator

How do I get rid of this error?

Thaks in advance
Nancy

This issue is not necessarily the result of Malware - there are solutions available so please post your OS and your thread will be moved to the appropriate forum and answered there.

I am so sorry I placed this in the wrong place.
I have Vista 64 bit OS.

Hi Nancy. Take a look here, Restore Point Creation Disabled by Group Policy.

This part of that link worked. Thanks again. I finally am restored to another date. Just hope that fixes my problem.

Registry Fix

To automate the above setting, download srpol-clear.reg and save to Desktop. Right-click on the file and choose Merge
