System Restore

[Guest]

A system using XPSP2 can only access two restore points over a period of two
days.

The system settings are set to maximum for each of five drives.

Any suggestions how the number of days/restore points may be increased?

TIA

Could be the setting of maximum is taking up too much space thereore;
limiting you to two restore points. I have mine set to use only 5% of a 32Gb
drive - seems like enough sapce to me.

Bert Kinney has gone to much trouble compiling his System Restore website..
you will understand System Restore better if you bookmark and read through
it..

Hi Llew,

I would suggest disabling System Restore on drives/partitions other than
the one Windows is installed on.

Here are some tips on adjusting disk space usage for System Restore.
