Using Windows system restore points

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.

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 files and settings.

When to create restore points

Before you add or modify software or hardware

Periodically, whenever the computer is functioning optimally

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