Previous Versions Never Works

Hi I am using Vista Ultimate and no matter what I do, which file
change or even if I do a system restore my previous versions tab alway
says "There are no previous versions available
I have my VSS Service set to manual, should this be set to Automatic i
order for Previous Versions to work
Any help would be great thanks

Hi,

That could be it - check to see if you have any system restore points.

If not , you need to set VSS service to Automatic - also check
Microsoft Software Shadow Copy Provider service is set to Automatic.

Hope this helps

Why don't you just set it to Automatic, then Start it and see for
yourself?

Hey...thanks for the replies

I have set both services to Automatic and Started them, changed a fe
files and still get "No previous versions available"

I may leave it for a few days after some restore points have been mad
and see if anything comes up then

I just read that guide you posted SIW2 and it solved the problem.

I had the TCP/IP NetBIOS Helper service disabled, after turning it on
noticed Previous versions again

Thanks for your help

That would be a coincidence. That is a networking service, and I cannot see
how it could have anything to do with shadow copies.

Hi, I'm using Vista Ultimate. I can't browse my previous restore files.
All services are as should be and I can browse using shadow explorer. I
don't know what is going on. Can someone help me?
