system recovery problem from antimalware

[johnyi]

problem : System restore disabled by group policy. i have vista home basic so gpedit.msc dosent work...

This is what i've tried
1. Click Start, Run and type regedit.exe and press Enter
2. Navigate to the following key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ Software \ Policies \ Microsoft \ Windows NT \ SystemRestore
​

In the right-pane:

• Delete the value DisableConfig
• Delete the value DisableSR

3. Exit the Registry Editor.
In Windows XP Professional, you can accomplish the above using Group Policy Editor as well.
1. Click Start, Run and type GPEDIT.MSC
2. Navigate to this path:

-> Computer Configuration
--> Administrative Templates
---> System
----> System Restore
​

3. Set Turn off System Restore to Not Configured
4. Set Turn off Configuration to Not Configured


Problem is, itried to delete the DisableSR but it dosent delete and Disableconfig isnt even there..

Hello again johnyi.



Probably the best thing for you to do is a repair install as it seems things have gotten out of hand; have a look at the tutorial at the link below and stay out of the registry.
