  1. System Restore on Windows 10


    I'm trying to set up system restore because it was suggested that I set up system restore to help resolve my problem with file explorer hanging or crashing. Then I read the following info on a locked string but can't asked question of whether or not to do the system restore at all or if it will work.


    You are not doing anything wrong, due to the amount of updates that are applied to Windows 10, the System Restore feature will fail a lot of the time . . .
    Windows 10 basically made System Restore defunct as a process, because when you apply updates, system files are changed and when you try to restore your system the version of those system files is completely different and the restore fails . . .

    My question is: If MS has made system restore a defunct process, should I set up a system restore?

  2. Windows XP PRO error after restore

    System restore is handy when it works like it did for me 2 days ago saving the need to reinstall all of my software as well as windows, id suggest using norton Ghost 12 for an excellent system restore feature.

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK

    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 (CSystem Restore on Windows 10 :) Properties
    Disable System Protection (OFF and ON) in System Protection for OS (CSystem Restore on Windows 10 :)
    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.
