Use the system restore and a restore point:

What files are modified during a system restore?

System Restore affects file system of Windows, programs and registry settings. It can also make changes to scripts, files, batch and other types of executable files created under any user account on your computer. System Restore does not affect personal files, such as e-mail, documents, or photos, so it cannot help you restore a deleted file. If you have backups of your files, you can restore files from a backup.

    Microsoft Vista Edition home premium

    It won't let me. I back up the files and restore files only. I clicked on restore advance, which is the configuration and status of backup and restore files, I see if. I don't have a disc. How should I do system restore the original configuration. Step by step guide.
    Usually, you get 2 options which is recommended to restore and choose a different restore point. I don't get any of those.
    I do not understand how my other computer (vista) I would like to do system restore to factory settings without using discs and what a custom?

    Hello

    You do not use the Vista System Restore feature to put your computer to the factory settings.

    System Restore updates only your computer settings to an earlier date.

    How to do a restore to factory settings, ask your computer manufacturer.

    You would either find a way to start the process under programs > then the manufacturer of the computer software > look it up it > or you will need to press some keys at startup.

    It would be either F10, F11, Alt + F10, etc., depending on the manufacturer.

    Ask them how to do it because it's their recovery process.

    Or ask them to send you a set of Vista recovery disks to reinstall the operating system.

    They should do this for a small fee.

    See you soon.

    p.s. Save your files as all data will be lost normally when you perform a restore to the factory settings

  • How to do a system restore in Windows 7

    Original title: turn on restoration of the system in windows 7 Home Premium, 64-bit edition

    Hello

    Before posting my question that I searched for information on how to start the system restore of this forum.  However, after reading several posts I'm not sure what to do.  A post suggests accessing the system of Protection, by selecting a drive and then clicking on configure and selecting one of the options.  In this case I'm not sure which one to choose: recovery or C.  For the moment I turned on recovery (that was turned off) and chosen for the restoration of the points, but I feel that this can be a problem.

    Another answer suggested turning on the shadow copy of Volume in the systems that I did too.  Can you please give me step by step instructions on how to run properly on the system restore.  Thank you.

    1 did you do any hardware changes or software on your computer before the system failure?

    You can try to run the system restore to revert to the previous state when it was working fine:

    a. click Start, type system restore in the Search box and then in the list click on the system restore program.

    If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type your password or click on continue.

    b. in the System Restore dialog box, click on choose a different restore point and then click Next.

    c. in the list of restore points, click a restore point created before you started having the problem, and then click Next.

    d. click Finish.

    Note: When you perform the system restore to restore the computer to a previous state, programs and updates that you have installed are removed.

  • How to do a system restore on dates still go back to my computer gives me

    I'm trying to restore my laptop to a date more far than its give me... How can I do this?

    The amount of available system restore points are limited by what is captured by the computer. System Restore is a difficult process for Windows to do given that it is coming back on every single shot the system to his class one as far as possible. Sometimes due to changes to the system since those snap shots were created, it gets a little bit reliable, trying to go back too far.

    If you are running Windows 7 and create regular back ups, System Restore are saved as part of your backups.

    In addition, by using the Windows 7 system restore, are will give you the opportunity to show more system restore points.

  • How to do a system restore on my acer aspire 731-4473 v3

    Well, we have problems with wifi on this new laptop. Service center that works on computers could not even solve this problem... I tried to find the system restore function, but this is no where in the area of computer options. I would try it to see if that helps. Yes, I tried to manually turn the signal that there is a button to signal, but all that done is turn airplane mode on and off and just keeps showing the wi fi off. Help, please. I will try and resolve any issues you may have in the future, as I am a Hunter of ghosts and very savy with computers, but it is to beat the * outta my brain. One last thing, I am very persistent and stubborn as I do not give up and you want to learn things for me. The laptop is under warranty, but I do not want to wait 7 to 10 weeks for factory repair or replace. If this happens once I get it fixed or a new, even once, I'll have to repeat the whole process guarantee. I spent a lot of money on an Acer, I am stuck with him and learned to never buy a new one, but I would use my wifi like a laptop or pc is darn near useless without the internet these days. Thanks a lot for anyhelp, you can give. So is there an option to restore the system to do this, if yes, how do to it and if not is it possible to turn on that I'm missing?

    ACERS recovery mode is called by pressing Alt + f10 when booting. It may take two or three times so he could load the screen boot options.
