Create and delete restore points in Windows Vista

Create and delete restore points in Windows Vista

In Windows Vista, System Restore, which is part of Windows System Protection, lets you freeze the state of your system's files at a certain point in time, allowing you to undo any changes you make from that point forward, but without having any affect on your personal files.

For example, suppose you install a new printer driver, then all of the sudden your computer is crashing. As long as you have Windows System Protection enabled in Windows Vista, you can easily go back to the state your computer was in before that failed install.

In this video tutorial, you'll be taken through the process of manually creating a system restore point, and you'll see how to delete existing restore points to save some disk space.
