    System Restore in Dual Boot Environment


    I have noticed during those times when I have needed to resort to System Restore to fix a problem, either the System Restore failed or the Restore Points I had created previously were gone.
    When I am in the System Protection (System Restore) window for Windows 7, my boot drive status is On and the drive for my Windows 10 drive is Off.
    The reverse is true when I boot into Windows 10 - the boot drive for Win 10 is On, while the drive for Win 7 is Off.
    I suspect that each time I boot into one OS it is deleting the Restore Point for the other OS (separate drives) simply because it is set to Off for the drive I am NOT booting from.
    Could this be the cause and is the remedy to "disable" the drive of the non-active OS?
    My reasoning is - if the active OS can't "see" the other OS drive, it can't delete the Restore Point(s) that are on it.
    Sound reasonable?

    Windows 10 cant install updates KB3163018 and KB3167685 (on an Alienware laptop) (please help me)

    How do you set up a secure boot and a dual boot with Linux in an BIOS environment rather than a UEFI one?
