| | Vista; System Restore Differences Running Vista Home Prem 32 Bit on a Desktop and a Laptop..... Opening System Restore to review recorded Restore points I noticed a difference between the Restore points listed in the Desktops' list from the Laptops'. The Desktop list includes updates, driver installs, etc, and, daily Restore points labeled "System:Scheduled Checkpoints". The Laptops Restore Points list only shows Updates, etc....it does not contain any "System: Scheduled Checkpoint". Saved Restore points go back about 4 months. It would seem to me a dialy Restore Point is important. I see no setting and, my C:\ is checked under System Properities\System Protection Tab. So my Desktop records a daily Point and my Laptop does not. Why doesn't the Laptop save any "System: Scheduled Checkpoints"? |

| | Re: Vista; System Restore Differences Yep, it was checked. I did discover why System: Scheduled Ceckpoints was never recording. Under Task Scheduler "Restore Points"....Settings where checked to stop a System Checkpoint if Laptop was operating on Battery. I only use my Laptop on Battery...so I unchecked this setting...and 20 minutes later System estore recorded a Checkpoint.
