Hi,

I have recently come across a # of articles/tips related to improving the computer's speed and a good number of these include disabling the Automatic creation of Restore Points.

Personally, I have come across a few occasions where the automatically created restore points have been of great help. However I understand that these eat up a good amount of hard disk space. Right?

Where are these restore points actually stored? Without disabling this feature (System Restore), is there a way/tool using which I can delete Restore Points created in the past and just keep the selected one's?

Will appreciate your reply.

Thanks.

First of all try using a program call C Cleaner to increase speed and disk availability. Also, stopping indexing can increase PC.
