rstrui.exe - Entry point not found.

[Ricardo]

Since re-installing XP pro (to fix a problem that using
System Restore didn't remedy System Restore has become
unavailable.
I get the following error message:

rstrui.exe - Entry point not found.
The procedure entry point
RemoteAssistancePrepareSystemRestore could not be located
in the dynamic link library WINSTA.dll.

Also, the System Restore tab is not present in 'System
Properties'.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks

1. Insert the Windows XP CD
2. Click [Start] [Run]
3. Type the following command and press Enter
"rundll32.exe advpack.dll,LaunchINFSection C:\Windows\Inf\sr.inf"

System Restore core files should be reinstalled.

Alternately, you may also open Windows Explorer, navigate to
"C:\Windows\Inf" folder and right-click sr.inf (choose Install)
