System Restore helps you restore your computer's system files to an earlier point in time. It's a way to undo system changes to your computer without affecting your personal files, such as e‑mail, documents, or photos.

Sometimes, the installation of a program or a driver can cause an unexpected change to your computer or cause Windows to behave unpredictably. Usually, uninstalling the program or driver corrects the problem. If uninstalling does not fix the problem, you can try restoring your computer's system to an earlier date when everything worked correctly.

System Restore uses a feature called System Protection to regularly create and save restore points on your computer. These restore points contain information about registry settings and other system information that Windows uses. You can also create restore points manually.

Open System Restore by clicking the Start button , clicking All Programs, clicking Accessories, clicking System Tools, and then clicking System Restore.* If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

Memory. Memory errors might be caused by faulty random access memory (RAM). To scan your computer's memory for errors, see How do I know if my computer has a memory problem?

Hard disks.Hard disk problems can be caused by corrupted system files or by physical errors on the disk itself. To scan your computer's hard disk for errors, see Check your hard disk for errors.

Devices and drivers. If you installed a new device, video card, or other hardware item that is causing problems, the driver for the device might be incompatible with Windows. For more information, see Tips for fixing common driver problems. If uninstalling or restoring the driver back to a previous version does not fix the problem, try uninstalling or removing the hardware, and then restarting your computer.

Compatibility. Most programs written for Windows XP also work in this version of Windows, but some older programs might run poorly or not at all. If a program written for an earlier version of Windows doesn't run correctly, use the Program Compatibility Wizard to change the compatibility settings for the program, or use the program's Compatibility tab to change the settings manually. For more information, see Make older programs run in this version of Windows**.

Uninstalling. If you cannot uninstall the program, try using System Restore to restore your system to a point in time when it worked correctly.

System Restore. System Restore can return your system files to a point in time before you noticed a problem. System Restore works without affecting documents, photos, or other personal files. For more information, see What is System Restore?

Multiboot order. If you have more than one operating system installed on your computer (a multiboot configuration), you can choose which one starts when you turn on your computer. For more information, see Change the default operating system for startup (multiboot).

Safe mode. You can use safe mode to temporarily disable programs that start themselves when Windows starts. If one of these programs is causing a problem, you can start your computer in safe mode and then uninstall the program before it starts. For more information about safe mode, see Advanced startup options (including safe mode).

If your computer will only start in safe mode, recently installed hardware or programs might be causing the problem. Try uninstalling recent programs or recent hardware and see if that fixes the problem. For more information, see Troubleshooting problems while in safe mode.
