Greetings from Spain, i have update to win11 (insider program) and now can not create restore points manually either configure the restore points. The app close, no error code is show, simply closes.

    Jiriky  after a little work, the Volume Shadow Copy Service does'nt exists in windows 11. With regedit, i was able to enable again the restore point. The EventSystem was stopped and it's posible to manually start but the VSS it's gone..., so the VSS writer also. For now o Microsoft repair it, or show how to install manually the VSS package

    Try turning off and turn on back the system protection, see if it helps.

      porque está deshabilitado o no tiene dispositivos habilitados asociados a él.

        Hi this is the release for the Dev channel. and Beta identical , so that you can downgrade the channel to Beta without a clean installation so probably the next release will fix it - just wait a little
