NO such listing. But, there is a ...
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows
NT\SystemRestore\DisableConfig REG_DWORD 0
There is also a ...
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\DeviceInstall\Settings\DisableSystemRestore
REG_DWORD 0
If that helps.
No, on the UPS.
As for the exact wording, I'll have to get back to you on that.
I have my computer doing something now and I can't interrupt it and shutdown
to get you your exact wording in the System Restore.
