    Hello Greg,

    Creating a restore point with description is not always working for some in Windows 10.

    If you like, you could use the instant restore point shortcut in step 2 or 3 below instead to create one.

    Hello Jansi, How to add Create Restore Point item to Context Menu in Windows 10 :)

    The command used to create the restore point uses the "MODIFY_SETTINGS" parameter for a "System" type restore point.

    You should be seeing this below for the restore point in System Restore.
