How much allocated space for ShadowStorage you have if any? If there isn't any space allocated it won't create restore point. You can find out easily how much is set for each drive or partition. In Run type > cmd < and enter.In the command window the blinking cursor will show where to type this command:
> vssadmin list shadowstorage < and enter.Observe the space between the words and keep them while writing.After you hit Enter it will show the allocated space.
