Protect Your System Files

System Restore is an operating system feature that enables you
to undo harmful changes to your tablet PC software by restoring
your software to an earlier time, called a restore point, when your
software was functioning optimally.
Restore points are restorable, benchmark "snapshots" of your
application, driver, and operating system files. The tablet PC sets
restore points at regular intervals and might set additional restore
points whenever you change your personal settings or add
software or hardware.
Manually setting additional restore points provides additional
protection for your system files and settings. It is recommended
that you manually set 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 time will
not affect documents or e-mails that you saved after that time. All
System Restore procedures are reversible.
