No Restore Point Created at Startup

In the Triggers tab for Task Scheduler for System Restore it shows a trigger
at system startup but there is no system restore point that was created this
morning when
I started my system. I fact I so none after 1/31 except for an uninstall I
did.
I have plenty of free disk space (100 gb free of 149 gb).

How can I set this so that every day when I start my system System Restore
creates a restore point??

One way is to create a script .vbs
CreateRestorePoint.vbs
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Set SRP = GetObject( "winmgmts:\\.\root\default:Systemrestore" )
CSRP = SRP.CreateRestorePoint( "System Checkpoint", 0, 100 )
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

and put it in your startup

Why isn't it creating Restore Points at startup??
It would be nice to be auomatic but I guess this is par for the course.

I found this in the System Restore Task Scheduler.
Why couldn't it launch??
I could do it manually like you suggested using vbs but I don't really care
for
an error such as this and would like to find out why it is occurring.

James

Task Scheduler could not launch task "\Microsoft\Windows\SystemRestore\SR"
as scheduled. Instance "{7ec01de6-d30f-4ecb-9aa5-72e6945dd0a1}" is started
now as required by the configuration option to start the task when
available, if schedule is missed.

As part of my research into the event viewer not starting, syste
restore did not work proprtly either. I think I read somewhere where S
depends on the event viewer. Is your event viewer working

Can you create any System restore points?
It may be corrupt
and sometimes you have to Disable it and then Re Enable it.
Also have you recently had a VIRUS On your system
Sometimes the Virus get's locked in your Restore Point and then your AV
Fights trying to delete it etc.

If you can't create ANY Restore Point (even Manually)
Try disabling it, reboot, and then enabling it.
(Of course Make sure you have saved files.)
In case of Disaster

Sorry 'bout the empty reply.
I just did a clean install, (format) of Vista Vasic a week ago.
I am able to create a restore point manually.
Nothing gave me an indication that I have a virus. All scans which
I've been doing every day with AVGFree and Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware
come up clean.

I do get an error on a custom log that I created showing events from the
past hour:

"One or more logs have errors" -
"Microsoft-Windows-MeetingSpace/Operational the specific channel could not
be found..."
"The events displayed are partial results"
