Windows 10: Questions about System Restore in Windows 10

Hi all -

Just some quick questions about System Restore in Windows 10...

1) Why isn't System Restore enabled by default?
2) When enabled, what is the creation frequency of System Restore points by default?
3) How much space does each Restore Point consume, on average?
4) If you have a 1 TB "C" drive, (containing the OS) what storage setting is considered to be optimal?
5) Finally, (just to confirm) what data elements does System Restore actually restore?

Please answer with question number.

Thanks!

Hello Angel,

Windows 10 may have encountered a system conflict when it tried to perform a system restore. For us to better assist you on performing a system restore, kindly answer the following questions:

• What is the make and model of your computer?
• What is the exact error message are you getting? If possible can you send us a screenshot using the attach photo feature on your reply.
• What is the current build and version of your Windows 10? To check type in
  winver on the search bar and press Enter.

Meanwhile, for a walkthrough on how to perform a system restore, kindly follow the steps on this

article and see the section that says Restore from a system restore point.
On another note, we also suggest that you check the Windows Defender settings and lower down the security if it is on high security. This can also be another issue why it is preventing an update to be installed.

We'll be waiting for your reply.

 

Windows 10 Tweaks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK
