Windows 10: Windows 10 1803 Not Creating Restore Point

Hi. I've noticed that my Windows 10 PC doesn't always create a restore point before Windows Updates. It will create Scheduled Checkpoints weekly and manually as well as after uninstalling or installing some programs.. So, other than this one issue, System Restore is working fine. Any ideas will be appreciated.

  Are you trying to create manual restore point in Windows 10?
  
• 
  Do you receive any error message, while trying to create restore point?
  

I like to inform you that, Windows automatically creates a restore point when you install desktop apps and new Windows updates, if the last restore point is older than 7 days. You can also create a restore point manually at any time.

To create restore point Manually, follow the below steps:

1. Press the WinKey+X to display the system menu and click
System.

2. On the left side menu, click
System Protection.

3. In the Protection Settings section, click the
C: (system) drive.

4. Click the Create button.

5. Type a name for the System Restore file (The
Date and Time will be added automatically).

Hope it helps, reply to us with the status of your issue. We will be happy to assist you.

 

Creating a manual restore point in Windows 10

A restore point is a copy of the status of the system at the time the restore point is taken. Yes, a restore point that was created earlier can be used to step the system back to that date and time. But how do you know the status of the system last week
to be able to create such a restore point?
