System Delphi

Title: create a System Restore point (XP)?
{
If you haven't installed the Microsoft Scripting Control yet
(TScriptControl component),
get it from http://www.msdn.microsoft.com/scripting/
Once you've downloaded and run the installation, start Delphi and go to the
Component | Import ActiveX Control... menu.
Select "Microsoft Script Control 1.0" from the Listbox amd click "Install"
to install the component into Delphi's palette.
What you should end up with now is a TScriptControl component on your ActiveX tab.
Start a new application, and drop a TButton, and a TScriptControl onto the main form.
In the OnClick event of Button1, put the following code:
}
{
Wenn du das Microsoft Scripting Control noch nicht installiert hast
(Komponente TScriptControl), dann kannst du hier runterladen:
http://www.msdn.microsoft.com/scripting/
Nachdem Herunterladen und der Installation wähle in der Delphi IDE unter dem
Menü "Komponente" den Menüpunkt "ActiveX importieren".
Dann in der Listbox "Microsoft Script Control 1.0" auswählen und "Installieren..."
anklicken.
Nun sollte die TScriptControl Komponente unter dem ActiveX Register zu finden sein.
Plaziere nun eine TScriptControl Komponente und einen TButton auf einer Form und
schreibe im OnClick Ereignis des Buttons den folgenden Code:
}
procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);
var
sr: OLEVAriant;
begin
ScriptControl1.Language := 'VBScript';
sr := ScriptControl1.Eval('getobject("winmgmts:\\.\root\default:Systemrestore")');
if sr.CreateRestorePoint('Automatic Restore Point', 0, 100) = 0 then
ShowMessage('New Restore Point successfully created.')
// Wiederherstellungspunkt erfolgreich erstellt
else
ShowMessage('Restore Point creation Failed!');
// Wiederherstellungspunkt Erstellung fehlgeschlagen.
end;
