including every time you install new software. Thus, if installation of a

program causes your computer to malfunction, simply restore the system to a

time point prior to that installation, and the computer should work again.

During the restore process, only settings and programs are changed. No

data is lost. Your computer includes all programs and settings as of the

restore date. This feature is absolutely invaluable for overworked techs. A

simple restore fixes many user-generated problems. To restore to a previous

time point, start the System Restore Wizard in System Tools.

You don’t have to count on the automatic creation of restore points. You

can open System Restore at any time and simply select Create a restore

point. Consider doing this before making changes that might not trigger an

automatic restore point, such as directly editing the Registry.

System Restore is turned on by default (except in Windows 10) and uses

some mass storage space to save information on restore points. To turn

System Restore on or off or change the space usage, right-click Computer or

This PC and select Properties, and then click the System protection link in the

Tasks list. Return to the System Protection tab and click the Configure button

to change System Restore configuration settings (see Figure 14-53).
