Windows 10: WIN 10 System Restore

I am getting the alert telling me to update Windows 10. Just to be cautious I went in to do a system restore point.


1: It tells me I have allocated 10 percent of my drive to be available for restore points. It states that have 5 restore points but also states zero bytes used for restore points. That makes no sense.


2: Also, in previous versions of Windows I would have several restore pints going back many months or more. Win10 only shows 5 restore points going back less than a month. Why?
