Vista - previous versions

Hi I'm using Vista home premium, upgraded to ultimate.

No previous versions are listed for files or folders.
manual & automatic restore points are being created.
Full restore works, but nothing is listed for previous versions
NTFS disc, 81Gb free, VSS service running

Any ideas
Thanks
Clive

have you created any "new" versions since you installed Ultimate??

Thanks for your response.
yes, loads as I'm using the PC, but have also created test data e.g create
txt file, save it, create restore point, modify file, save it. No new
versions listed.

I don't use the feature but I think it may require a bit of time. A task
that creates a restore point runs at midnight and PV is part of System
Restore. So try waiting till after midnight.
