    System Restore Points Disappear


    I am on Win 10 64 V 20043.


    On my Lenovo laptop I recently had a major problem with no Audio suddenly-Synaptics Audio.

    I did get it fixed on 17 December and promptly created a System restore point. I also did another Restore point a few days later.

    The dreaded Audio problem -no device installed has recurred. on 29 December pm. After trying several fixes I then thought i should try system restore

    BUT when I selected Show more Restore Points only one 26 December with text Automatic restore shows.

    Why should my very Recent 17 December Restore Point no longer show?


    I have my laptop set up as Automatic Updates . The last one wads 17 December. When i manually check each day for further updates the only ones are security intelligence updates which for some reason do not show up in Updates History.

    Comments please.

    :)

    Performed all steps you recommended. It didn’t help. Created restore point disappeared in about half an hour. The following message appeared: “No restore points have been created on your computer system drive”.

    Disappearing Restore Points

    I have provided 59GB for the Restore Points.

    And I have created one Restore Point that used up less than 200MB of the space provided.

    Yet after a few days, it disappeared.

    This keeps happening many times because I created them just to check whether they disappear like the rest.

    They do.

    And just in case anyone is curious whether I have enabled System Protection, the answer is that I have.

    My understanding of how Restore Points work is that as more and more Restore Points are created and the spaced provided is squeezed, the older ones will be deleted to make space for the new ones.

    This is a very logical step.

    But as can be seen above I have 59GB while the Restore Points created came to less then 200MB!!!!

    I think that the whole argument is becoming more and more futile.

    By right Microsoft must do something to ensure that the Restore Points are not deleted in any way.

    But so far, they have either passed the bug back to the users by suggesting all sorts of programming by the user to solve the problem or better still staying invisible!!!

    Do you know what?

    Not everyone is a programmer and if you screw up, you don't even have the Restore Point to save you!

    Which is what the Restore Point is there in the first place!

    I hope that users will wake up to the fact the Microsoft is passing the bug back to THEM!!!!

    I suggest that users in the US awaken the top hierachy in Microsoft to the deplorable state of affairs in their company!!!

    System Restore Points Disappear

    Windows 10 System Restore Show More Restore Points Box Missing and Restore Points Being Deleted or Missing

    Hi Steven,

    There are several reasons why the Show more restore points check box is missing. Some of these are the following:

    • You run out of disk space on the system drive or on any one of the available non-system drives, and System Restore stops responding and stops monitoring your system.
    • You manually turn System Restore off.
    • You upgrade from one operating system to another or you reinstall the operating system

    In your case, as you have reinstalled Windows, it's possible that all restore points are deleted, that's why the
    Show more restore points check box is not appearing. Did you delete all the partitions when you reinstall Windows? If yes, then all the manually and automatically created restore points will disappear. For further isolation of the issue, we suggest that
    you create a new restore point and monitor if it will disappear in a few days just like the others.

    We'll wait for your response.
