    Can a system restore point revert my OS?

    I am currently running Windows 10. If I want to use system restore to revert my computer to an earlier point in time, will all recovery options listed keep my computer on Windows 10 or it will one have the ability to revert my system back to Windows
    7? And if it reverts me back to Windows 7, will I still be able to get a free upgrade back to Windows 10?

  3. Using Restore Points

    "Still confused about restore point." when you say "still confused", does that mean you have already inquired about system restore? If so don't let those confusions interfere with the issue at hand which I interpret to mean you want how to understand how to use system restore. The posts already included bring up legitimate opinions but in your case I strongly suggest keeping it simple: just the basics.

    FYI, whenever I help some one I always create a system restore point right up front not as a fix at that point but as a starting point of the computers situation. After moving on to address whatever the computer needs I will create a system restore point that mentions the computer is fixed. Before I leave I'll create another restore point because if something goes wrong later on, I can go back to the point of when the computer was fixed and running properly. Notice that system restore isn't what fixed the issues, they are just points when the system was either questionable or when it was running properly.

    "Shouldn't I click 'configure' to set this up to be able to set some 'restore points' now and then? If things got cranky, fix it up easily "...by reverting your computer to a previous restore point..." looks simple."
    --- Yes turn it on.
    --- "easily" & "looks simple" sounds good but someone needs to know the basics before that approach is reasonable.

    "Shouldn't I click 'configure' to set this up to be able to set some 'restore points' now and then? If things got cranky, fix it up easily "...by reverting your computer to a previous restore point..." looks simple."
    --- That's a good question but not an always good answer.
    --- If you suspect restoring to a previous restore point will help, try it.
    --- But then if the computer is in serious trouble, don't even try that, use your MRF system image backup.
    --- When you encounter a situation that isn't cut & dry, post the issue as there's plenty of excellent help available.

    @I'mLost, I hope my recommendations are helpful but there are times I wonder about that.
    ---That doesn't mean to always follow my recommendations, but evaluate what makes sense to you from everyone else also in order to progress.
    --- Many times I'm trying to balance what a good recommendation is vs. trying to accommodate you.

    There are System Restore points tutorials available and I'm willing to list the ones that should be helpful to you but I need to know if you are interested in such a list.

    Not able to revert to Restore Point

    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 (CNot able to revert to Restore Point :) Properties
    Disable System Protection (OFF and ON) in System Protection for OS (CNot able to revert to Restore Point :)
    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.
