Can System Restore points be SELECTIVELY purged?

[Guest]

Had major problems over the weekend & did 11 restore/unrestores before realizing source was newly installed graphics driver. Obviously this is using a lot of disk space, & I'd like to know if it's possible to delete/purge what's been stored ONLY FOR THESE DATES, while keeping all the earlier restore points the way they are. Thanks in advance.

One cannot selectively delete restore points....its all or nothing.

Thanks for the quick response. Forgot to ask: is there some way of finding out just how much space is CURRENTLY being used by system restore. (I don't mean the max. amount allowed)
