Windows Forum / Windows Me / System Tools / December 2004StateMgr to ReBuild Restore Question
Typing from Outlook / Advise if my text is jumbled again! Restore worked Saturday; Error msg today/Couldn't Restore.This is TYPICAL. I Re-DnLoaded the 290700 patch and it Did Work again (600 MB space / *statemgr checked always in StartUp. Daily Creation of ChkPoint hasn't worked in awhile. Think I want to Re-Build RESTORE using Mike Maltby instructions to Jerry S. I'm WEAK on DOS SO: After the DOS line is typed: REN C:\_RESTORE OLDREST, instruct says (c) Remove Floppy (d) Reboot your PC (2) Questions: 1. looks like TWO empty spaces between RESTORE and OLDREST and one space in other places. Do DOS entries sometimes require TWO spaces between phrases or single letters and some ONE, or is ONE always OK? (2) After removing Floppy, what command(s) is used to ReBooot my PC? I can only guess something like: cd C: Then C:\ Windows What's real answer? Many Thanks! Craig, Please try and use paragraphs as this will help those who might be able to help you. The lack of paragraphs has nothing to do with how you input your message. <g> Downloading the 290700 patch will have automatically wiped out all of your previous checkpoints. Lack of automatic checkpoints has nothing to do with whether the 290700 patch is installed or not. DOS has no interest in the number of spaces between the parts of a command. What is important is that a space is used where indicated in the script you are following. Often those posting such scripts use multiple spaces to emphasise where a space is required. One is sufficient when you then use that command.  SignatureMike Maltby MS-MVP mike.maltby@gmail.com > Typing from Outlook / Advise if my text is jumbled again!

Dos has been a while for me also but the 8.3 file convention applied to directories also. A leading space was ignored and a trailing space was interpreted as an invalid switch. > Thanks, Mike. > >IE6 & Outlook give "Page Not Available" when I tried to access Forum / your Reply; [quoted text clipped - 33 lines] > > > something like: cd C: Then C:\ Windows What's real answer?

Whilst good news I have to tell you that any changes made to Winsock will have had absolutely nothing to do with whether the state manager creates automatic checkpoints or not.
