Solved Updated Win11Pro to next 25H2 Dev build, now unable to enable System Protection on any drive,
Just updated 25H2 Dev Build 26220.5770 .. now cannot enable Sys Protect / create a Restore point on any drive, Enable option is greyed out =( Any ideas? A bug? A *gasp* feature? This isnt a delete restore points after 60days thing. Feedback sent.
