2023-11-28T01:22:14+00:00 Ok. For the D drive, drag the Max Usage slider entirely to the left, and click OK.
Also, see if you can free up 500 MB of disk space in the D drive.
Once done, try to create a Restore Point.

2023-11-27T06:14:03+00:00 The only flaw found in the logs is the following:
Name: D:\
DeviceId: \?\Volume{a172abcb-0000-0000-0000-100000000000}\
Size: 298 GB
Available: 18 MB
Minimum: 320 MB
IsOk: False
Description: Free space is below required minimum
IsMounted: True
The D drive doesn't have enough space but the shadow size allotment seems to be totally incorrect.
Open systempropertiesprotection.exe
Select the D: drive and choose Configure.
Please post a screenshot.
