Windows 10: How to Keep or Save a Restore Point in Windows 10

Hello there,
Restore Points in Windows 10:
There is an automatic restore point in system restore. Those restore points are deleted automatically, and new ones are created.

How can I keep one of those points before it is deleted? Is there a way to save the restore point?

the restore point

Hi Alvaro,

You can save the state of the operating system and your own files by
creating a restore point, so that if future changes cause a problem, you can
return them
to previous versions and settings.

We suggest that you check the article below and follow the
guidelines and steps under Restore from a system restore point.

How to delete inactive System Image Restore Points in System Restore

Windows 10 64-bit.
When I click "show more restore points" in System Restore I see a bunch of old "system image restore points" that were deleted in past and do not correspond to any currently active restore points. Clicking any of these old restore points, I simply get an error message saying they could not be found, and to select another restore point instead.I would like to delete these restore points listings but have been unable to do so.
So far, I have tried steps mentioned below without any luck :

Disk Cleanup through (C Properties
Disable System Protection (OFF and ON) in System Protection for OS (C
Disk Space Usage to minimum (slider button all the way to the left then 'Delete all restore points for this drive'),
Delete all shown Restore points in CCleaner (the problem ones do not show here),
Reset Windows Backup to Default in Windows 10 with 'Reset_Windows_Backup.bat' utility.

Any suggestions highly welcome.
