dont have a 'my computer' its just 'computer' (b/c its vista maybe?) when i r click that i get a fancy screen that says 'view basic information about your computer' that has 'tasks' on the left side. underneath its got:

device mgr
remote settings
system protection
advanced system settings

when i go to system protection>system properties>

a box pops up with a tab system protection. that has some options for system restore but it doesn't match up exactly with what you wrote. when i click that system restore 'button' it gives the option to 'recommended restore' or 'choose a different restore point'

Likely would be a tad smoother if I provided the Vista steps for that instead, ey?


Go to Start - Start Search, type sysdm.cpl (then press Enter).

Click the "System Protection" tab, then under "Automatic restore points", uncheck the box next to "Local Disk (C: ) (System)".

Then agree to the warning by clicking the "Turn System Restore Off" button, and click Apply, then OK.

This will turn off System Restore and remove the saved Restore points.


Then again go to Start - Start Search, type sysdm.cpl (then press Enter).

Click the "System Protection" tab, then under "Automatic restore points", recheck the box next to "Local Disk (C: ) (System)".

And again click Apply/OK to close the System Properties display.
