    Several system restore points are available but I cannot proceed, the status shows "You must enable system protection on this drive".

    Startup repair failed. I am able to open the command prompt.

    The backup plan is boot rescue.

    At step 10: should I select the system drive? Volume 0 is showing as one of my secondary HDD's. The system drive is volume 2.

    step 10 is using disk not volume
    did you mean disk 1 instead of disk 0?
    Display the info for disk 0 and disk 1 then in the latter commands.

    Sorry, disk 0 is a backup and disk 1 is the system drive. Should I still start with disk 0?

    For each disk run these commands:
    select disk 0
    detail disk
    select disk 1
    detail disk
    select disk 2
    detail disk
    select disk 3
    detail disk
    For the applicable disk with the volumes and partitions run the subsequent commands so that all of the partition information is displayed.

    When I run chkdsk /R:

    The type of the file system is NTFS.
    Cannot lock current drive.

    Chkdsk cannot run because the volume is in use by another
    process. Chkdsk may run if this volume is dismounted first.
    ALL OPENED HANDLES TO THIS VOLUME WOULD THEN BE INVALID.
    Would you like to force a dismount on this volume? (Y/N)

    In post #2 which steps were skipped?

    Had a Macrium backup image never been made?
    Had a restore point never been made?
    Had the BIOS been reset?
    Any other steps skipped in post #2 or other posts?

    Were restore points at any time manually turned on or off?
