Restore to earlier time
Windows Vista
To do a system restore, follow these steps
- Access System Restore
- Click Next
- Select a restore point
- If you need to select a different restore point, put a check on Show more restore points
- If the restore point is not selected, select the restore point
- Click Scan for affected programs
- This window will show what might be altered from the system restore so you can decide if you want to restore the system to this date. (Note: if you do decide to restore the system, and you want these drivers or programs, you may have to reinstall them)
- Click Close
- Click Next
- Confirm you have selected the right restore point and click Next
- Click Finish
- The system will reboot
If the restore procedure causes problems or you want to return the system back to the way it was before you ran the restore, you can undo your changes.
