System Restore “restore points” are missing or deleted

I get this message :
There was an unexpected error in the property page.
Please close the property page and try again.
There is a program I found and it will not let me delete it. It says it is preparing to delete it but it just goes on and on and on!!
Hmmmmmmmmm.........You have a serious OS issue.....Might be a “ransom worm”....has you all screwed up.
If so, I have never dealt with one and I am not sure that there is a fix for it.
What is the program?
Yeah, sounds like you have a malicious virus.
Make sure you are not confusing backup restore with restore points. These are easy to confuse.
Type restore into the Start menu search box. When the window opens, click on the link that says “Recover system settings or your computer”. CLick the button for Open System Restore and then click Next on the popup window. It should then list all of the restore points.
In my little world, since I have used MS products since the mid 90s, I generally default to reloading the OS after saving what I could...

Or you can just get the Windows problem fixed and go on with your life.
They like apples too......my friend...

When did you install PC keeper?
If you think you are infected, type msconfig in the Start menu search box. Go to the startup tab and uncheck any application that doesn’t belong. Particularly stop apps from starting that don’t have a company name. This doesn’t remove the virus, but is a good first step in stopping it from restarting, unless your registry is deeply infected.
And after 30 Days of Lost Identity Due to Theft, your bank notifies you that your credit is shot for the next 7 years.
open control panel
click the classic view in the tasks pane
double click administrative tools
double click services
look for the microsoft software shadow copy provider and double click it
in the start up type menu (select automatic)
in the start button click it
click apply and then ok
look for volume shadow copy service and perform the same procedure
exit and reboot the computer
