    System Restore disappearing act

    It has happened before but lately it has been happening more often. My System Restore has been turning off itself...on its own. What causes this? And how do I fix it so it won't happen again?

    I feel ill at ease when SR is off. No Restore Point is like no safety net while trapezing

    Lets check the imporatnt things first. Many virus are programmed to turn the service off, so it is more difficult to get rid of them.
    Update your anti virus and make a full scan
    Download and make a full scan with Malwarebytes.
    After you are sure that it is not due to a virus or worse, read this:
