System Restore Fails - Event Code 8206
Have not been able to successfully do a Restore for several months (maybe never ... first tried several months ago).
The Event viewer (Custom -> Administrative) shows an error every time with a code of 8206.
I have tried:
- SFC /scannow ... no errors
- chkdsk .... no errors
- made sure 'Volume shadow copy service' is running
- turned off firewall/antivirus software (avast) ... no joy
- rebuilt Windows Management Instrumentation
- troubleshooting via the MS 'clean boot' procedure
... but nothing helps.
Anyone have a suggestion where to go from here?
