I had to deinstall defraggler not only because of the loss of the last restore point every some time but also the "explosion" of the fragmentented "System Volume Information" to ten times it's original size after defragmentation.

I have the same problem, that I often lose system restore points, like many others. I wrote something at this thread: http://forum.piriform.com/index.php?showtopic=31045

Hello, I have the same problem in Vista (of course not only for aborted defrags). The normal file in "System Volume Information" is like 300 MB, but after defrag of my windows vista partition it is 1,5 GB. You just hit the check button again after defrag and see the new big framented file. And after another defrag it even grows to 3 GB! And there is another problem: you can read of many people online, who's system restore points are missing every some time. I bet it has something to do with this problems. My restore points are also often suddenly gone. That vista partition has 10 to 13 GB of free space. So space is not the problem. If this problem could not be solved, I have to deinstal defraggler and use the windows own defrag. Cause why should we accept that massive production of gigabytes of trashy shadow files and even loss of restore points? And I do not like to disable the restore points and activate them after every defrag to delete that massive shadow file. For me, this is a major bug. (latest Vista SP2, drivers, defraggler.) I think I should open a thread for this big problem.
