All systems restore points older than 90 days are
automatically purged. What do I have to do to restore my
system to April, 2002?
 
Hi Barbara,

Generally in my experience with XP, I don't think
you can go back after after 90 days. System Restore would
need a lot of file space
especially to restore a point back to April, 2002

Sorry

What is special about "April 2002"?

You can't. Restore points aren't kept indefinitely and certainly *NOT* for
15 months! 90 days is the most they're kept for, but that doesn't mean
you'll be able to go back three months either, they'll be purged sooner if
you're running out of disk space.

The only way you can restore t April 2002 (I assume that's when you
purchased the system) is to use the restore/recovery/rescue disc that came
with the system.
