Creating Restore Point manually

• Not getting not automatically created restore points

  Original title - help with Restore Points

  I recently changed the size of my drives C and D using a utility partition.

  He stopped the automatic creation of Restore Points. I noticed this because the restore disk cleanup deleting data/shadow copies running did not clearly get out any space on my hard drive. I run Disk Cleanup about every 10 days.
  I tried to re - turn on this; but I'm not able to do. Here's what I did:
  Under Task Scheduler, I have a set trigger in place to create a point of restoring daily at 14:00. My computer is sometimes off in the morning.
  The State of this trigger is activated. This is used to create regular restore points.
  I disabled the trigger to create a restore at startup a point a couple of years. My system has been the creation of restore points every day with the other Tirgger at 14:00 in Task Scheduler.
  Question No. 1: Would it be useful to delete and recreate the trigger for 14:00?
  Question 2: I went into control panel – system and Maintenance – System – the System Protection window and I am able to manually create a restore point.
  I can see my drives C and D on the list. Maybe I think too much about things and read things correctly; but I feel like it's better to ask this question:
  * Should I put a check mark next to my D drive or my C drive?
  I ask this question because the title says in this little window of the System Protection: "create restore automatically on some points:
  So, does that mean that only check box for drive C indicates a place where the restore point will be created physically ("on drive C"), or it means to a restore point to data on the C drive will be created? Is this clear?
  Right now I checked C drive and D drive and not on the list. I'm assuming he's asking me which drive I want backed up.
  (I don't know where the backup restore points are saved/located to go look for them.)
  I see that the last restore point was when I did it manually. The task scheduled for 14:00 does not appear on the list in this little window. However, when I check the history of Task Scheduler, it shows that the task has been completed.
  Question 3: Is something wrong with this list? I also check to see if the restore point is created at 14:00 from the task history shows that this has been done?
  I would appreciate help with this. I put a reminder on my calendar to create restore points manually. But something does not work with my system; and I want to fix it.
  Ken

  Restore points are made. Yesterday, after posting the original message/questions, I changed the schedule of the trigger to make a restore point. Maybe something jogging in the system in place. (Not exactly a technical term, I know.)

  Today, I checked the disk cleanup and had much less free space of a few days. I ran clean it point restoration/cliché and cleared space. Then I checked the control panel – system and Maintenance – System – the System Protection window and saw that the restore point the most recent was created today.
  Then...
  Question 1: Maybe change the relaxation time makes a difference.
  Question 2: Place a check mark next to the C drive, which is the drive that you want supported during the restoration.
  Question 3: Everything is fine with this list.

• create restore point

  On the two latest updates of definitions soundcards Defender, the usual announcement 'create restore point' is missing.   Update history confirms successful downloads, but I wonder if something essential has been omitted.

  JW

  To store restore points, you need at least 300 megabytes (MB) of free space on each hard disk with the system on Protection.

  System Restore can use up to 15 percent of the space on each disk.

  As the amount of space fills up with restore points, System Restore deletes older restore points to make room for the new.

• How to change group policy for the system restore will create restore point

  I recently installed an SSD with windows 7, it's the default OS and hard drive on a system dual boot. I also have my old HHD with windows vista home premium. I had problems using the restore of the system with the SSD drive and read on a forum that the restoration of the system causes problems when it is used on an SSD. I have disable restoring the system to the SSD, but still he had checked to allow restoration on the vista disk and a 500 GB drive, I have use for storage.

  I managed to create a restore point when you are using windows 7 OS, but when I used my vista drive, and wanted to create additional restore points for two HHD disks, it does not allow the creation of restore points by group policy settings. I regularly create restore for the SSD disk and have created one for the HHD Vista since the system restore does not create additional restore points now.

  How can I change my group policy settings to enable restore points to create the disk under Vista. I don't remember changing anything that might have caused it, is there a chance that a horse of Trojan or virus caused this? I have Webroot antivirus and currently aired Kaspersky Anti-virus on Vista drive. I also ran the Microsoft safety scanner in safe mode and normal startup mode, none of the virus scanners have found problems, so I'm pretty sure I don't have a Trojan or a virus.

  To the point, how to make appropriate changes to allow the restoration of the system to work for my two HHD disks.  Better yet is there a way to restore completely all original windows default system settings without having to do a clean reinstall.

  You can provide any help would be greatly appreciated

  Thank you

• Slow to open create restore point

  On my desktop XP 2.01GH with 512 MB of memory, 150GBdrive with space 11.1 GB used, creating a restore point takes 1 second to open. On my Vista laptop 2.1GH PC with 3GBmemory, 220 GB GB 60.5 disc, creating a restore point takes 3 minutes to open. I see other problems to users that it is quite fast but keeping in mind I am not getting any error messages or anything unusual happening, can someone please tell me why it should take 3 minutes Vista to open when XP takes 1 second? Would it be because of the higher space which need to be covered? If not, is there a way to speed up the Vista of 3 minutes?

  I don't have a concrete answer except tell you what I did.
  I had your situation several times and found out that if I did a cleanup of twilight and delete all except the most recent restore points, System Properties window would open much more quickly.

  CAUTION: Do not remove all your restore points like I said unless you are sure that your difficulties works well. Because you will not have any older restore point to fall back after the 2nd stage of cleaning of say.

  Tutorial of disk cleanup:
  It consists of 2 parts...
  In step 1 to 11, it's just the usual disk cleanup.
  Step 12 until the end, it is to delete all except the most recent restore points.

• No restore point on the computer and unable to create restore points

  original title: restore point

  I don't have and can't seem to create a restore point on my computer... Why?

  Hello

  May be an indication of corruption. Turn off System Restore in Control Panel of configuration/system under Protection System. Then restart and restart the service (recheck it before turn off readers). See if it will then create a restore point.

  If this fails, you probably experience some interference from other software installed on the system. You need to selectively disable the axis of startup programs until the restoration of the system behaves normally. Instructions for the boot minimum troubleshooting can be found here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135
