  1. Restore Point on Windows 10-How to prevent manual restore point from been overwritten?


    Dear all,


    I have a brand new Dell laptop G5-5590 with windows 10 Home.

    1. Recently I observed that restore point was disactivated and I decided to activate it I activated restore point only for OS drive.
    2. Next to that I set the maximum capacity of restore point at 3% ==> ~6.5 gb.
    3. I also created manually a restore point.
    4. I checked the 1st day on which restore point was created that system storage occupied capacity from restore point was 406 MB.
    5. Every next day the capacity occupied at system storage for restore point was increased.
    6. I was checking if any other restore point had been created but I could not see something for 6 days
    7. Finally after 7 days the occupied capacity at system storage for restore point was 3.1 gb and I found that 2 other restore points had been created automatically from windows.


    After this short dexcription, I would like your help regarding the following questions :

    • Is everything described above normal ?
    • My manual restore point will be automatically deleted overwritten when the max storage set capacity be reached ?
    • If yes, how can i keep it ? I mean how to prevent the manual restore point that i have created, without increasing max set storage capacity.


    Thanks a lot for your time and looking forward your reply.


    Best Reagrds,

    Theodoros
