Why won't Windows let me refresh or reset?

[Windows Central Question]

Windows won't let me refresh or reset.

Just tells me there was a problem resetting or refreshing and that no changes were made.

Phone, PC, Tablet and give more details as to why you need to do a reset.

Sounds like a PC or laptop. Do you have a restore disk?

Or are you trying to roll back to a restore point?

Restore point failure often gives that error. Pick an earlier restore point or a more recent one. I assume you are trying to just undo one recent change.

It would help to know what OS version you are on.
