📎 AI Summary:

The original poster, nehoma, suspects antivirus software like Norton 365 might be causing the problem and attempts troubleshooting with some advice from others. The overall sentiment suggests that uninstalling problematic antivirus programs, such as Norton, could resolve the restore issues, and an alternative backup tool is also recommended as a potential solution.

When I try to do a restore on windows, to any restore point I get an error message. I do turn off my firewall and anti virus when trying to restore.
the error message is:
uploaded
An image from 'Restore Error'. Both images show a Windows System Restore error stating the restore did not complete due to an antivirus conflict.

Hi Peter,
which anti-virus suite do you use? If it's either Bitdefender or Norton it may help if you uninstalled the AV. See this link:

Hi
How ya doin? I think you are probably right about having to remove Norton 365. I tried some tips but not got anywhere yet.
Nice to hear from you
Peter
