I have a VBScript that creates restore points in sys. restore. The first time I ran this script everything went as it was suppose to. After that, no .vbs would run.
I do have AnalogX "Script Defender", every time I open the .vbs file, Script Defender warns me of a .vbs file trying to execute. It gives me two options - to block the script or to allow the script to run. After I choose to allow script to run, nothing happens.
I've disabled Script Defender, tried to run the script, nothing happens.

This is the script:

Set SRP = getobject("winmgmts:\\.\root\default:Systemrestore ")
CSRP = SRP.createrestorepoint ("Created a Restore Point now", 0, 100

Anyone have any ideas why this or any other .vbs will not run?

Alright, if I try to open any .vbs file, I get an "access denied" message.

Thought it may be due to my firewall, antivirus, antispyware, etc. not allowing .vbs to be opened. Unplugged my ethernet cable, disabled Kerio4 firewall, NOD32, Ewido, spywareguard, teatimer - still "access denied".

I have the administrator rights to my PC, no password. Maybe this helps pin down the problem.

Can't really say. But may be system restore service gets disabled. Try to find out through services MMC. Can found services under Control Panel - Administrative Tools - Services. Look for System Restore and check whether It's running or not.

Or

Try typing this in run dialog under start menu - "wscript.exe <vbscript file>"
