Win XP - Even though I have the "System Restore" option turned on, the files are never retained more than a day on the calendar. In other words, I can see all the of the restore points for today but upon attempting tomorrow, the restore points from today will be gone.

Are you low on disk space? Maybe the system is dumping the restore images because of that.

On a 74.5GB HD, I have 10.7GB free. I don't think a restore point takes nearly that much space. I am suspecting a registry error. Would the program "Registry Fix" be the cause of the problem?

Have you tried turning off system restore, rebooting and then turning on again?
