    Your Windows machine is not allowing the creation of a system restore such that the installation can be undone.

    2/25/2021 2:45:06 AM - System restore is not supported on this system
    2/25/2021 2:45:06 AM - Failed to create system restore point: 0x80131524

    Googling for causes include the following

    • Running out of disk space for Windows to store the information needed
    • It is turned off (use rstrui to see if there are any), if it is off then turn it on
