System Restore fails with the following error:

There was an unexpected error. The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is
incorrect (0x8007007B). System Restore will now close.

This error is caused by faulty imaging by the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) that
results in the presence of an invalid volume. To see if this is the problem, go to System in
Control Panel and open System Protection. There will be two volumes shown, one of which is
selected and named “Missing.” Selecting C:\ and deselecting “Missing” solves the problem.
