The past couple weeks my restore points have been
disappearing, they seem to last a few days, a week,
whatever, then just all disappear. I read this article
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=812119 But i'm not
sure whether or not if its the case in my situation. I
had realplayer version 1 with no problem, other then it
sucks but thats about it. I upgraded to ver 2 a few
weeks ago so thats why im wondering. I also used to
diskcleanup a few weeks back and deleted all but most
recent restore point and noticed after that some restore
points wouldnt work, but they were still there and im
guessing that was caused by something else. Does anyone
know what else would cause the restore points to just
disappear? Im using xp home.
 
Hi,

Age.

Age causes then to disappear. SR can only use 12% of the available drive
space. The more you place on the drive, the fewer SR points that can be
maintained.
