How to restore your computer to an earlier date and adjust your system restore points

How to adjust and create more system restore points.
1-go to start in the bottom left hand corner of your screen, right click on computer, then click properties
2 choose advance system settings and go to system protection
3 click on Windows files to highlight it, then click configure.
4 Keep the bullet on Restore system settings and previous versions of files
5 From Disk Space usage, adjust the dial by moving it to the right or left depending on how much disk space you want to allocate for your system restore points. The higher the percentage, the more restore points you get. However a high number of restore points will consume a lot of disk space from your C drive so we therefore recommend that you choose no more than 10%.
Now click apply, then ok.

Now say for example, you have a problem on your computer and you want to restore your computer to an earlier date.
Go to start, all programs, accessories, system tools then system restore.
The system restore window will open.
Click next , then choose the restore point you wish to go back to, say we'll choose 26/3/2013.
Highlight it and then click next, then click finish.
Now a window will popup asking you to confirm this step.
If you're sure you want to restore your computer, then click yes.
Your computer will now be restored to a previous date and then will be restarted.

Just a tip for people who never made a restore point themselves : Nearly all Windows updates sent to your computer by Microsoft will create an automatic restore point, so that if an update causes you trouble, you can always return to the point where it wasn't downloaded yet.

okay... this video is still a life saver today. i mean i had a really bad virus and my pc was mining bitcoins and it had a bunch of malware and such but i managed to do it without admin powers so this is really a life saver... i took less than 30 min's and i didn't loose anything or barely!

Thank you for your video, it was very helpful. I had downloaded adware ( Desktop Temperature Monitor) which was giving me headache with ads and I had no idea how to uninstall it your guided video helped me restore my computer to a date before I downloaded the bug...effectively deleting it thanks.

I LOVE the narrators voice... Very pleasant... And good on the ears lol. Just upgraded to Windows 10 and was shocked at how much disk space system restore was using. It was set at a default 50%!! I only had 600 GB from my 1 TB hard drive. After deleting all restore points, I now have 724 GB :) Plus I set the system restore usage to 10% (90.21 GB)
