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
