How do I re-enable System Restore after using DisableSR in an unattended setup? I get the following error: "System Restore encountered an error. Please try to run System Restore again. (0x81000203)" Either System Restore or VSS has still been making backups even though disabled and so I don't think DisableSR properly disabled it.

My mistake the Microsoft Software Shadow Copy Provider service was disabled.

This behavior is by design. DisableSR will limits the ongoing usefulness of System Restore on the computer. To re-enable, please try: 1. Open gpedit.msc from Start Search box.2. Navigate to the following branch. Computer Configuration\Administrative Template\System\System Restore. 3. In the right pane, please configure the Turn off system restore policy. Please set it to Not Configured.Arthur Xie - MSFT

Hello I come across this thread because I have same error "System Restore encountered an error. Please try to run System Restore again. (0x81000203)" Now the right pane of Computer Configuration\Administrative Template\System\System Restore, is alreday configured as you suggest which is set to Not Configured Internet Is also not working. Will appreciate your guidance. KDP
