    Why is System Restore not automatically activated as default?


    Is there a reason why system restore is not automatically activated as default in Windows 10?

    Does it work well or are there alternative solutions?

    My experience with Windows 7 was that it sometimes worked OK but not all the time and I had problems with recovery system images.

    Can anyone also please recommend a viable solution (Microsoft or open source) after a new clean install and all the programs have been added (which is a very time consuming process...) i.e. what is the best solution for a system image that contains the operating system and all programs soon after a clean install?

    Many thanks for any advice.

    :)

    Missing icons / buttons after System Restore

    Hi Terrie,

    To address your concern, we suggest that you try to undo the restore or pick another restore point.

    Please follow these steps to access system restore:

    • Right-click (or press and hold) the Start button, and then select Control Panel.
    • Search Control Panel for Recovery.
    • Select Recovery > Open System Restore > Next.

    Let us know how it goes.
