Re: System Restore hard disk trashing is driving me nuts

Hi,

Yes , just to confirm what Shawn said - if you turn off System Restore - you will lose the restore points.

If you Disable and Stop the Volume Shadow Copy service instead - the restore points will still be there.

They will stay there for the default time - which I believe is 90 days. Shawn will be able to tell you how to extend that if needed.

Of course, you have to restart it again to create another point , or to do a system restore.

Hope it helps.
