Hi,
Before making system changes, I need to create a system restore point on windows server 2008 Standard with SP2 installed., I found where to accomplish that via the UI, but the file isn't found when I search the C:\windows directory on the server.
The executable should be C:\windows\system32\rstrui.exe, unless it was changed for Server 2008. I have system protection turned on for the C: drive.This problem also exists on Windows server R2 enterprise with all updates applied.
I searched the install media (DVD) it wasn't there. I tried the full name (rstrui.exe) as well as truncated versions. I've searched on all of the applicable forums for rstrui.exe and "create system restore point".
Does someone know where I can get rstrui.exe for windows server 8. It's not available on windows server R2 enterprise or essentials either. If there is an alternative method of creating restore points on windows server 8, please point me in the correct direction. Is it available in any of the variations of windows server 12. I have all of the updates installed when checking for how to create a system restore point or with searching for rstrui.exe. BTW, performing "system backups" or implementing"previous versions" functionality work just fine.
Thank you in advance,
Steve
