| 72567 | 2002-08-20 02:54:00 | I have resorted to the System Restore utility on my Win ME computer several times to clear up sticky situations. Last time I noticed it is only saving the most recent save, not the several options it used to keep. Obviously some setting somewhere has changed . Where do I look to return to the default setting? |

| 72568 | 2002-08-20 03:19:00 | I have a feeling it only puts a restore point in, when you add a program or make a change somewhere...... I think the default setting is your last restore point | dot_com (558) | ||
| 72569 | 2002-08-20 03:24:00 | Hi Waldorf, I haven't had to use Restore for a while (touch wood) but I think from memory that if you perform scandisk and/or defrag that you may have wiped out previous restore points. Also occasionally if you have had a virus, then often one of the solutions ton remove the virus is to purge Restore files, therefore removing restore points. Also go to System Properties in Control Panel or right click on My Computer and select properties. Click on Performance then File System . There is a slider thingamajig that will determine how much space is allocated for Restore. Mine is on Max. Hope this helps Sam m |

| 72570 | 2002-08-21 22:10:00 | i disable mine and use GoBack much better and gives you full restoration in time as oposed to system boot up only when ME decides to work about 40% of the time | kiwibeat (304) | ||
