Wow, Bill. I never would have guessed. The only reason I can think ofBill said:There is a way to adjust the number of days Restore Points are kept,
but the System Restore UI doesn't include the capability to change
that setting. It can be changed by editing the Registry, but that's
something the typical user probably should not attempt. If you have
the skill/knowledge for editing the Registry, here are the details:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows
NT\CurrentVersion\SystemRestore
The parameter for this setting is RPLifeInterval, and the value is in
seconds, so for 15 days the value would be 1296000. When editing this
type of parameter, it's important to change the Base display to
decimal when inputting the new value.
