System Restore Optimisation for Full PC Protection

Protect Your PC Against Serious Windows Crashes Using System Restore

If you make a mistake when typing in a Microsoft Word document, you can use the undo function to cancel your change and revert to a previous state. Don’t you wish that Windows had a similar feature, that allowed you to undo changes to your system to cure errors and allow you to roll back to previously working configurations? Well it does: System Restore. However, without the right configuration and management, System Restore can be a false hope: when something goes wrong, you open System Restore to try to fix the problem, only
to find that no suitable restore point exists.

By taking a little time to tweak System Restore you can be sure that any error that crops up on your Windows system can be easily undone. In this article, I’ll show you the steps you need to take for a perfectly configured System Restore, for problem-free Windows operation.
