    Create a system restore point in Windows Seven

    System Restore helps you restore the system files from your computer to a previous point in time. This allows you to cancel the changes to the system without affecting your personal files, such as emails, documents or photos.

    Sometimes, installing a program or driver causing unexpected changes in your computer or unpredictable behavior of Windows. Usually, uninstalling the program or driver corrects the problem. If this is not the case, you can try to restore the system to an earlier date when everything was working properly.

    These restore points contain information about registry settings and other system information used by Windows. You can also create restore points manually.

    System Restore does not back up personal files. Therefore, this feature does not allow you to recover a personal file that was deleted or damaged. To do this, you must regularly back up your personal files and important data with a backup program.


    How to create a restore point


    To create a restore point system Seven, click on the Vista logo and then click Control Panel

    Click System and Security

    Click on System

    Click on the left on System Protection

    Click C reate ...

    Enter a name for your restore point and click Create

    The restore point is created.

    You receive a confirmation message when Windows has finished creating the restore point




    System Restore changes the Windows system files, registry settings and programs installed on your computer. Scripts, command files and other types of executable files can also be changed on your computer. Personal files, such as documents, emails, photos and audio files are not modified.

    For example, if you upload a personal file, such as a photo from a digital camera on Friday and then restore the state of your computer as it was two days earlier, the picture will always on your computer.

    However, if you install a program for viewing photos on Friday, and then restore the state of your computer as it was two days before, System Restore will uninstall this program and you will no longer use to view photos.
