Vista - System Restore Question

How can I delete all but the last 2 or 3 System Restore points? I know I
cann turn them all off but I want to save the last ones done earlier in the
month.

Hello Pat,

You might try reducing the amount of space allocated for System Restore.

System Restore - disk space

3gb is suggested in the tutorial and you could try reducing it gradually till you get to an amount you are happy with.

From then on , there will only be that amount of space allocated before the older points are removed.

Hope it helps

You can *not* do that. You have only three choices:

1. Delete all of them.

2. Delete all but the most recent one.

3. Delete none of them.

Pat:

You can delete all but the last Restore Point using "Disk Cleanup"

Start > All Programs > Accessories > System Tools > Disk Cleanup

If asked, select "Files from all users on this computer".

The select drive dropbox will start, so select C: .

Once that's done the dialogue box will show and there will be a "More
Options" tab at the top. Click it, then click the "Clean Up.." button in the
"System Restore and Shadow Copies" section. Click any necessary OKs. The
program will clean up the disk and will remove excess Restore Points.
