System Restore Missing?

Over the past few months I've received several e-mails asking me why their System Restore is grayed out in System Properties. Well, while everyone enjoys freeing up resources by manipulating Windows Services, people tend to forget what they disabled or set as manual, until disaster strikes and they need to restore their system.

Check Control Panel ==> Administrative Tools ===> Services and scroll down to System Restore Service. Set it back to Automatic. You can try to Start it, but there's a chance it'll fail. But all should be good once you reboot. I recommend giving up a few resources to keep this XP feature active and running. But the choice is entirely yours.
