Using System Restore Points

System restore is an operating system feature that allows you to
reverse undesirable changes to your computer by restoring the
computer to an earlier state, called a restore point. A restore point
is a "snapshot" of your software, drivers, and operating system
files at a particular time.
The computer automatically creates restore points at regular
intervals and may create additional restore points when you
change your personal settings or add software or hardware.
You can also manually create additional restore points to provide
increased protection for your system files and settings. It is
recommended that you manually create restore points
Before you add or extensively modify software or hardware.
Periodically, whenever the system is performing optimally.
Restoring to any restore point does not affect your data files. For
example, restoring your system software to an earlier state will
not affect documents or e-mails you saved after that time. You
can also reverse a restoration at any time.
