Hit “Create a restore point” and after that click Next option. And a screen will appear in which you can enter a location of restore point. Use a location which is easy to remember.



After creating the restore point a confirmation window will appear on the screen.



The restore point is created.

Restoring from a Restore Point:

To restore from a restore point which was created earlier, open System Restore as previously, but this time choose “Restore my computer to an earlier time” option instead. In order to restore the System Restore will restart the system again.

Click on next option, and a calendar with bolded dates will appear in all the restore points. Click on the date, and after that click a restore point in the right side of the screen.
