I am not able to create a system restore point.
Attached is a screenshot of the error message.
I looked this up online and tried the suggestions to no avail.
does anyone have any ideas on how to resolve this issue?

disable the self protection of your security software

I disabled self protection of my security software as it was mentioned in other posts.
I didn't think it would be helpful, but I tried anyway.
It was indeed the Kaspersky Removal Tool that took out the ability to create a system restore point.

Thank you very much!!! @cc2150dx
The information you provided fixed my issue as well.

I had indeed used kavremover and I was unaware that it would screw up my system.

@cookinpro I'm glad it worked out for you :) Maybe if other users have the same issue they can resort to this post.

btw...I backed up the 'repair.reg' file to an usb stick just in case I need it.
