Missing registry key for system restore on XP

Apparently this key is gone from my registry and I need step by step
instructions to
re-add it back in. If I go to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Win dows NT.... the only folder
I see is one called Terminal Services. Please help, thank you in advance.

Maybe something here.

System Restore fails to restore

See "Troubleshooting System Restore in Windows XP"
(http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=302796).

Re: Missing registry key for system restore on XP

This may be what you are referring to:
Go here
http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm

Scroll down to #278, Left Side:
Restore/Enable System Restore

Click to download and save the .reg file to your desktop, then right-click the saved
sysrestoreenable.reg file and click Merge on the menu that appears, and OK to the
confirmation message.

Re: Missing registry key for system restore on XP

Hi,

The "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Wi ndows NT\SystemRestore"
Key is not necessary for System Restore to function.

Is System Restore functioning?
