We have found one of the restrictions. Strange that the earlier search in the registry didn't show it.

  • Please run the MiniRegTool.
    • Copy and paste the following in the edit box:

      [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows NT\SystemRestore]

    • Check the Export radio button.
    • Press Go button.
    • Please either post the log (Result.txt) directly to your reply before doing the next step or rename the file so that it is not overwritten when doing the next step.

  • Please run the MiniRegTool.
    • Copy and paste the following in the edit box:

      [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows NT\SystemRestore]

    • Check the Delete Keys/Values including locked/null embedded radio button.
    • Press Go button.
    • Please post the log (Result.txt) to your reply.

  • Now see if you can work with the system restore.
