Has your once-reliable Windows PC become sluggish, unstable, or even crashed entirely? Don't despair! Before you consider drastic measures like a full system reinstall, there's a handy built-in tool called System Restore Point that can be your digital guardian angel.

What is System Restore Point?

Think of a System Restore Point as a time machine for your computer. It takes a snapshot of your system's settings, files, and drivers at a specific point in time. This allows you to revert your PC back to that state if something goes wrong in the future, like a bad software installation or a buggy update.

Why Use System Restore Point?

Recover from Software Issues: Installed a new program that messed things up? System Restore can take you back to a point before the installation, effectively undoing the damage.
Rollback Faulty Updates: Sometimes, Windows updates can introduce problems. System Restore lets you revert to a point before the update, giving you time to wait for a fix.
Rescue from System Instability: Experiencing random crashes, freezes, or strange behavior? Restoring to a stable point can get your PC back on track.

Here's How to Use System Restore Point:

1. Enable System Protection (if not already on):

• Search for "System Protection" in the Windows search bar.
• Click "Create a restore point" under the relevant drive (usually C:).
• Enable "Turn on system protection" and allocate some disk space for restore points (e.g., 5-10%).
• Click "Apply" and "OK" to activate System Protection.

1. *Performing a System Restore: *

• Search for "Control Panel" and open it.
• Search for "Recovery" and select "Open System Restore."
• Click "Next" to proceed with system restore.
• Choose a desired restore point (ideally one created before the issue started).
• Confirm your selection and click "Finish" to initiate the restore process.

Important Notes:

• System Restore won't affect your personal files like documents, photos, or music.
• However, it will remove applications, drivers, and updates installed after the chosen restore point.
• Make sure you have a recent backup of important data before performing a System Restore.

By having System Restore Points enabled, you gain a valuable safety net against software mishaps. So, create restore points regularly, especially before installing new programs or applying major updates. Remember, prevention is always better than cure, and System Restore Point can be your knight in shining armor when your Windows PC needs a reset!
