    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 much % is required of space for restore points? :) Properties
    Disable System Protection (OFF and ON) in System Protection for OS (CHow much % is required of space for restore points? :)
    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.

    Why only one restore point showing for recovery?

    We appreciate the prompt response. At the moment, the created restore points are being managed by the system and doesn't provide an option to relocate to another location. However, you an set the amount of space that system will use for the restore point.
    To do this, follow the steps below:

    • Search for Create a restore point from the taskbar and select it from the list of results.
    • On the System Protection tab, select
      Configure      .
    • Under Disk Space Usage, move the slider depending on your preferred memory allotment for the restore points
    • Click OK.
    Let us know should you have other concerns.

    Restore Points removed


    That should be enough space. See once how many restore points you have. The command is

    vssadmin list shadows

    That will list restore points in all partitions. Make sure you count only the ones for the partition in question.
