System Restore fails: AppxStaging %ProgramFiles%\WindowsApp 0x80070091

This "entry is corrupt" has been there for years though. Try going to DCOM and change the authority for RuntimeBroker for example.

You can ignore it. At the very least we should have a different thread for that or it will confuse this issue.

Thanks, I suspected as much because I've seen that all four of my PCs.

On a semi-related subject, on the system boot>advanced options

Attachment 123999

I am missing the system restore tile. Can anyone please confirm whether or not they have it?

Take a look at this utility:Resetting NTFS files permission in Windows – Graphical Utility | lallous' lab

When you unzipped that utility, did it ask you for a password?

thanks

I believe the password is on the site you downloaded the file from.

Yes, the password is lallouslab.
its under the download instructions. It's easy to overlook.

Hello kitpzyxmir. Thank you for the response...I am just replying to your question: "Did you utilize Macrium boot recovery procedures?".

Quite likely no. I am struggling..drowning ... whatever, in a flood of nomenclature. I'm a microbiologist turned crystallographer, turned engineer-metal turner, with my own workshop.... and nearing retirement. A good general scientist, who started with Algol60 and Basic! I am better off than many in understanding the dialogue but I'm not fluent practically. The general public will be deeper in Software House Information Technology issues with no way out. Just one bad download of a third-party app, not redemable by the System Restore function, could see them incapacitated. I hope Microsoft take notice, and I understand they aren't a charity, but - if their intent is to extinguish OpenOffice in favour of their Office, or eMClient in favour of Outlook or Firefox in favour of Internet Explorer, then they will not be writing machine code (whatever) for autonomous vehicles, with public money.

I am concerned for people like Chris who is an accountant with a first class honours degree in busines finance and a church organist. He is in his 70s and this last Christmas he purchased two Acer Aspire XC705 computers with Windows 10 Home and Microsoft Office student version. He uses it for social communications and I had to teach him the Create a Restore Point and System Restore functions. Its £1,000 of kit and it displays: error 0x80070091 AppxStaging. He paid, believing he did the correct thing. He bought a beta version.

We have all been here before; spiceworks confirmed as much. In September 2016 I handled Cortana breaking, with a third-party software Company, then it was prolongued black screen from Shutdown-start-up which was resolved with Windows Central, then it was AppxStaging with Ten Forums. Few consumers can dedicate that amount of time.

Google, Amazon and Facebook have all sat in front of Parliamentary Select Committees and it's time Microsoft did likewise. Microsoft has lost control of their own monster. It's a security problem mainly. On the 6th March (Monday) autonomous vehicles were the subject of debate in the House of Commons. Is anyone willing to share road-space with a vehicle controlled by Microsoft Photomics, based on Microsoft's history of software release? Well I am a motor-cyclist and cyclist and I'm unwilling.

Windows 10 with AppxStaging error 0x80070091 is a timely reminder; Avira doesn't call it ransomware just yet, and it must not become racketeeringware or the norm.

Thank you everybody. Time to bail-out.

Hi SimonFastEddy, I enjoyed reading your post. Although I am stating the obvious and with an abundance of caution, I do hope the you are making frequent backups of the partitions on your PC to another device such as a USB drive or a NAS, with a product such as Macrium, either free or paid. This overcomes the System Restore issue while adding protection against ransomware, That is as long as the backup device is normally disconnected from your PC. It is a win-win solution.

Personally, I favour 'Incompetence Theory' rather than 'Conspiracy Theory' as the explanation... :)

I earlier posted that I thought this was caused by the Cumulative Update KB3213986 and then hesitated. I have today built a new system from scratch, installed Windows 10 Pro 64 bit and the System Restore problem 0x80070091 is present immediately. Windows has done no updates and the problem is there.
