  1. I can't open any of my files after restore point


    Long story short, I was trying to fix my laptops wireless adapter and once I did I booted up my laptop only for my laptop to show an issue about "user interface missing" and told me to reboot which I did. When I rebooted though I signed in to see all my personal files gone.So I went and used a restore point from 2 days ago and now anything in file explorer I try to open will not work. Images, videos, etc I can still use shortcuts to open my browsers and applications. But it gives me this error codeAlong with another issue is that I'm getting error codes that certain windows apps like snip and

    restore point

    Hi there mikewilson4, I will be your Independent Advisor for today, I hope we can both resolve your problem.

    This is possible if you have a restore point that can restore your computer 2 months back.

    To check your restore point please follow this,

    This option takes your PC back to an earlier point in time, called a system restore point. Restore points are generated when you install a new app or driver, and when you create a restore point manually. Restoring won’t affect your personal files, but it will remove apps, drivers, and updates installed after the restore point was made.

    In the search box on the taskbar, type control panel, and then choose it from the list of results

    In the Control Panel search box, type recovery.

    Select Recovery > Open System Restore.

    In the Restore system files and setting box, select Next.

    Select the restore point that you want to use in the list of results, and then select Scan for affected programs.



    Notes

    If you don’t see the restore point that you want to use, select the Show more restore points check box to see more restore points.

    If you’re not seeing any restore points, it might be because system protection isn’t turned on. Here’s how to check:

    In the search box on the taskbar, type control panel, and then choose it from the list of results.

    In the Control Panel search box, type recovery.

    Select Recovery > Configure System Restore > Configure and see if the Turn on system protection option is selected.

    If the Turn on system protection option is not selected, system protection isn’t turned on and there aren't any restore points. In this scenario, you won't be able to recovery your PC using a system restore point and will need to use one of the other recovery options listed on this page.

    If the Turn on system protection option is selected, continue with step 6.

    You'll see a list of items that will be deleted if you remove this restore point. If you're OK with the deletions, select Close> Next > Finish.

    opening .dds files with gimp

    Simply, HOW? I got the DDS plugin but the POS wont open DDS files still. Can someone give me a step-by-step rundown of how to install the DDS plugin for gimp so I know if I'm missing something?

  4. I can't open any of my files after restore point

    "System Restore failed to extract the file (...\OneDrive) from the restore point."

    This is just a suggestion to try turning off one drive before doing the restore. The problem might not be with the restore point files, but rather with the collision with open one drive files when doing the restore.
