Ever wish you could turn back the clock after a bad crash? With Windows, you can do that.
Sometimes installing a program or driver can make Windows run slowly or unexpectedly. System Restore can return your PC's system data files and applications to a time when everything was working fine, possibly avoiding hours of problem solving issues. It won't impact your records, images, or other data.
In Windows seven, you can make more system restore points and see exactly what data files will be eliminated or added when your PC is restore. For more details, see Create a restore point.
For more protection, use System restore with Back-up and Restore, which is designed to help protect email, images, records, and other details.
To use Program Restore:
- Open System restore by simply clicking the Start button. In the search box, type System restore and then, in the list of results, click System restore. If you're prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, enter the password or provide verification.
- Follow the steps in the wizard to choose a restore factor and reinstate your computer.
