System recovery

The computer system recovery process provides several ways to recover optimal system functionality. For best results, attempt to recover optimal computer functionality by using the following procedures in the order described here.

Safeguarding your information

Software or devices added to the computer can cause your system to become unstable. To safeguard your documents, store personal files in the My Documents folder and periodically create a backup copy of the My Documents folder.

Using System Restore

System Restore is an operating system feature that allows you to reverse undesirable changes to the computer by restoring the computer to an earlier state, called a restore point. A restore point is a “snapshot” of your software, drivers, and operating system files at a particular time. The computer automatically creates restore points at regular intervals and may create additional restore points when you change your personal settings or add software or hardware.

You can manually create additional restore points to provide increased protection for your system files and settings. It is recommended that you manually create restore points

Before you add or extensively modify software or hardware.

Periodically, whenever the system is performing optimally.

Restoring to any restore point does not affect your information files. For example, restoring your system software to an earlier state will not affect documents or e-mails that you saved after that time.

NOTE If you do not like the results of your restoration, you can reverse the restoration.

Creating a restore point

To create a restore point:

1.Click System Restore in the Help and Support Center. The System Restore window opens.

2.Click Create a restore point, and then click Next.

3.Follow the on-screen instructions.
