    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 (CHow do i prevent windows system restore point to deleted itself automatically? :) Properties
    Disable System Protection (OFF and ON) in System Protection for OS (CHow do i prevent windows system restore point to deleted itself automatically? :)
    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.

    System restore points automatically deleted?

    Hi Karanza725

    Large Windows 10 updates, like those released in march and September each year will automatically delete all your Restore points to maintain system stability

    Apart from that, a size is set on your hard drive to store System Restore points, when your restore points exceed that size, older Restore Points are automatically deleted, in order to make room for new restore points

    Click your Start Button, then just type restore

    From there open the System Restore App

    Select your C Drive and click 'Configure'

    From there you can set the space used by System Restore points . ..

    Windows 10 System Restore Show More Restore Points Box Missing and Restore Points Being Deleted or Missing

    Hi Steven,

    There are several reasons why the Show more restore points check box is missing. Some of these are the following:

    • You run out of disk space on the system drive or on any one of the available non-system drives, and System Restore stops responding and stops monitoring your system.
    • You manually turn System Restore off.
    • You upgrade from one operating system to another or you reinstall the operating system

    In your case, as you have reinstalled Windows, it's possible that all restore points are deleted, that's why the
    Show more restore points check box is not appearing. Did you delete all the partitions when you reinstall Windows? If yes, then all the manually and automatically created restore points will disappear. For further isolation of the issue, we suggest that
    you create a new restore point and monitor if it will disappear in a few days just like the others.

    We'll wait for your response.
