Manually set a previous Restore Point

How can I set a system restore point on a date prior to that of the automatic restore point? For example, my current automatic restore point is May 25 and I want to put it to May 21. When I click on the link that allows me to set a restore point, it defines only the point for the current day. It does not give me the option of specifying a particular (and previous) date for my restore point, along with other versions of Windows.

No win version did have the opportunity to create a restore point for a date that has passed.

If you mean you want to restore to an earlier period, when the victory of system restore select the box "show more restore points.

    The system restore already worked successfully in the past?

    Thank you MS Answers, allowing the resolution of simple problems like frustrating and a lot of time as possible by asking only not for any information system when a new question is asked.

    Provide information on your system, the better you can:

    What is your system brand and model?

    What is your Version of XP and the Service Pack?

    Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Symantec, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, MSE, Panda, Trend Micro, CA, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, Comodo, etc..

    The question was preceded by a loss of power, aborted reboot or abnormal termination?  (this includes the plug pulling, buttons power, remove the battery, etc.)

    The afflicted system has a working CD/DVD (internal or external) drive?

    You have a true bootable XP installation CD (it is not the same as any recovery CD provided with your system)?

    If the system works, what do you think might have changed since the last time it did not work properly?

    Some tools Anti Virus 'protect' your system so that they will not allow a restore of the system work properly.
    For example, if you use Norton/Symantec products, you will see a message like this:
    Restoration incomplete. Your computer cannot be restored...
    It is also a popular Symantec problem (well, I'll be polite and call an "undocumented feature"...), they wrote an article about it:
    According to what you use for malware protection, you may need to disable the product temporarily, do the system restore and then turn the products light up again when the system restore is complete.
    Sometimes you need start your system in Mode safe and so that your protection programs are not running, and then do the system restore.  Tips from Microsoft in some of their articles that if the system restore does not restore your computer, start in Safe Mode, and then run the system restore.  It works for some configurations.
    System Restore is sometimes so afflicted or Restore Points are suspicious, the best solution is to reinstall your system restore.  This will remove the old Restore Points, but sometimes it's the only way to fix a broken system restore.  You don't have to reinstall XP, only the part of system restore.
    That can leave you with your problem of unspecified origin that you hope the system restore will fix (using a system restore is usually not equivalent to fixing the problem though).
    Give these ideas some consideration if they apply to you.
    Sometimes malicious will afflict your system restore to prevent you to find and remove malware.  It would much rather you trick into thinking that you need to repair or reinstall your XP when it is not necessary.
    No matter what you use for protection against malware, I do so and then only begin to solve any problems:
    Download, install, update and do a full scan with these free malware detection programs can solve any problems:
    Malwarebytes (MMFA): http://malwarebytes.org/
    SUPERAntiSpyware: (SAS): http://www.superantispyware.com/
    It can be uninstalled later if you wish.
    The scans by operating clean, reboot, test and we can fix any other issues.

    Possibilities:

    1. you are not the administrator. You don't have to enter the admin password valid when he asked for it.

    2. you probably have the problem with the infection by the virus.

    If you ARE the admin, suggestions:

    a. run a full scan.

    b. If the machine is clean, do your Safe Mode system restore.

    How to go in safe mode?

    Restart > immediately and repeatedly tapping the F8 key until you see a black and white scree > top? Touch down arrow, and then select Safe Mode > Enter > now that you are using safe mode. Make your system restore.

    When I opened the system restore, the only restore point that is displayed is earlier today.  How can I see earlier restore points?  And if the system is to keep only a single restore point, as seems to be the case, where and how can I change the settings to save restore points more in the future?

  • I can't put the system restore at any point, nor the desire, it set a new restore point, error box - another restore is in progress and me stops dead.

    I am running windows Vista Home Basic; 32-bit.  Norton 360 anti virus; ALSO I can not uninstall all ADOBE programs, error says cannot locate
    %AppData%, critical then an error screen after another.  I'm agree with getting rid of most of the old files and users to start all over again, windows was on the computer when I bought it. Help

    I'm glad you're running properly again!

    And have nothing to do with registry cleaners, you've discovered.

    As you say, make regular data backups, and if something bad happens, you always have to fall back on recovery.

    Thanks a lot for taking the time to answer and help others here.
