Learning to use Windows Restore
System Points
Windows has a
fantastic feature called the Windows Restore System .
This is a major
development for Operating systems, it not only allows you to
recover from a corrupt or problematic system, but also allows
you to restore to any given date that when a restore point was
created.
Generally the
Microsoft system restore will create a restore point whenever a
major system change is implemented, this can include such things
as software installs or driver updates etc.
You can also create
your own restore points whenever you wish, but note, they do use
disk space so once your happy your computer is working fine,
every now and then it's a good idea to keep things tidy by
removing all but the most current system restore point.
The Microsoft System
Restore
From the restore system
function, if your pc was working ok on Monday and Started giving
you problems on Tuesday you should be able to restore to the
Monday configuration.
This will then put your
computer back to almost how it was on Monday, make a note it
does not change any work files you may have created, but it will
change any other settings to the system made after the chosen
restore day.
if you have developed any .net
or application files it may revert these back to this date, so
ensure you have a backup of these before implementing any system
restore .
Make
sure you saved any changes to documents and close any other open
applications.
To use system restore
go to the Start Menu Select All Programs,
Accessories, System Tools, System Restore
From the restore system menu
Select Restore my
Computer To An Earlier Time
NOTE .. It's
from here you can also create restore points
Pick a date ( the last time it was working ok )
Follow the prompts
and it will begin, once finished your computer will restart and
fingers crossed your pc will now be fine.
If the problem
persists, have a look at the dates on the restore calendar, from
here you'll be able to see what was installed on each restore
point date.
You may then have to
restore to an even earlier date.
