Using Microsoft System Restore
Microsoft System Restore periodically takes “snapshots” of
your system settings and saves them as restore points. In
most cases of hard-to-resolve software problems, you can
return to one of these restore points to get your system
running again.
Windows automatically creates an additional restore point
each day, and also each time you install software or device
drivers. You can also create a restore point manually. For
instructions, see “Manually creating a restore point” on
page 102.
To restore using Microsoft System Restore:
1 Click or tap (Start), Control Panel, System and
Maintenance, then click or tap Backup and Restore
Center. The Backup and Restore Center opens.
