I am using Windows XP SR1. It came on a new Gateway 500
computer.
I installed a spyware program and foolishly deleted all
the files it said were spyware. Thereafter about 20
programs ceased to work or ceased to work fully. There
was a system restore point at that date. I attempted
System Restore and it hung on the screen that says that,
if you click on 'next' it will begin to restore the
system.
Then I rebooted and F8'ted till I got the Safe Menu and
chose Safe Mode. I then attempted to use System Restore
and it worked as though it was doing something and did
not give any error messages. But, when I rebooted, a
message appeared on my screen saying that the restore had
failed.
This Restore point was only two days ago.
I am not too happy with Windows XP. It seems to have
more problems than Windows 98.
Thank you for any help.
