Using system restore points

When you back up your system, you are creating a system restore point. A system restore point allows you to save and name a snapshot of your hard drive at a specific point in time. You can then recover back to that point if you want to reverse subsequent changes made to your system.

NOTE: Recovering to an earlier restore point does not affect data files saved or e-mails created since the last restore point.

You also can create additional restore points to provide increased protection for your system files and settings.

When to create restore points

●Before you add or extensively modify software or hardware

●Periodically, whenever the system is performing optimally

NOTE: If you revert to a restore point and then change your mind, you can reverse the restoration.

Create a system restore point

1.Select Start > Control Panel > System and Security > System.

2.In the left pane, click System Protection.

3.Click the System Protection tab.

4.Under Protection Settings, select the disk for which you want to create a restore point.

5.Click Create.

6.Follow the on-screen instructions.

Restore to a previous date and time

To revert to a restore point (created at a previous date and time), when the computer was functioning optimally, follow these steps:

1.Select Start > Control Panel > System and Security > System.

2.In the left pane, click System protection.

3.Click the System Protection tab.
