    Automatically delete Scheduled Restored Points older than n days


    Hi All!

    I have set my computer to automatically create scheduled DAILY Restore Points.

    Is there a way to automatically delete Scheduled Restored Points older than n (3, 4, 5,...) days?

    Thank you,



    :)

    Scheduling automatic creation of System Restore Points"

    OK, talking to myself here, but it might help someone else. I have persevered and come to the conclusion that 0x0 means that a program ran successfully and is not an error code as reported on many web pages. If you doubt this, look in Task Scheduler at the
    programs that run at start up time. They all show 0x0 and they are working.

    So why no restore point? I have come to the conclusion that System Restore decides that one is not necessary, probably because one was taken in the last n days. Don't ask me what n is. Maybe a week? To test this theory I deleted
    all restore points and waited for my scheduled Restore Point creation task to run. Voila! A restore point.

    Cracked it.

    Scheduling System Restore Point Creation


    I have tried to precisely follow the instructions set out in System Restore Point : Create at System Startup - Windows 7 Help Forums, but the Task Scheduler / script is failing to create a restore point:
    • Running the script manually creates a Restore Point.
    • Task Scheduler appears to run the script, but no Restore Point results.

    (The Last Run Result code 0x41301 indicates "The task is already running".)

    The Task Scheduler settings are as follows:

    I would be grateful for any suggestions as to why the restore points are not being created.
