    Delete System Restore Points in Windows 10


    I did it first without success and cleared the restore points (140GB from an old system)

    If this is a data drive, you could format the "F" drive to clear it. You would of course need to temporarily copy anything you didn't want to lose to another location first.

    Run PowerShell in admin mode
    Code: Disable-ComputerRestore -Drive "C:\" vssadmin List ShadowStorage /On=C: vssadmin Resize ShadowStorage /For=C: /On=C: /MaxSize=400MB vssadmin Resize ShadowStorage /For=C: /On=C: /MaxSize=10% Enable-ComputerRestore -Drive "C:\" Checkpoint-Computer -Description "Initial" vssadmin List ShadowStorage /On=C:[/quote] Copy & paste the code above in powershell windows

    This is my quickest way to delete & recreate "System Restore Points" on C: drive *Smile

    thanks again for this tread
