Using System Restore Points
When you back up your system, you are creating a system restore
point. A system restore point allows you to save and name a
snapshot of your hard drive at a specific point in time. You can
then recover back to that point if you want to reverse subsequent
changes made to your system.
✎
Recovering to an earlier restore point does not affect data files
saved or e-mails created since the last restore point.
You also can create additional restore points to provide increased
protection for your system files and settings.
When to Create Restore Points
■
Before you add or extensively modify software or hardware.
■
Periodically, whenever the system is performing optimally.
✎
If you revert to a restore point and then change your mind, you
can reverse the restoration.
