Windows 10: System Restore Points Missing

I was thinking about restoring my hard drive to an earlier configuration to see if that would correct an issue I'm having with one of my applications. But when I opened the System Restore window, I was surprised to see only one Auto Restore Point, dated within the past week. My settings for Restore allow up to 22.8GB (5% of disk capacity), and it shows only 3.28GB used. Any idea why I don't see more Auto Restore Points?

My windows10 is Version 1803, Build 17134.112 (Need to update my Profile)

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.

 

recover System retore points missing

I am running Windows 10 and my System restore points are missing. I know I have created these and saw them listed in the System restore screen. The restore points are configured correctly with ample memory for the restore points. Can these be restored?
