Rollback

1. Click the Rollback button.
You can use rollback to undo changes to your computer and restore its
software and settings to a previous state, based on a date in the past
called a "Restore Point." Think of a restore point as a snapshot of your
system.
It's good to create a restore point if you are about to make a major change
to your system, like installing new software or making major changes to
your computer's settings.
Rolling your computer back to a previous restore point will not cause
you to lose any of your current work, like documents, email or web
browser bookmarks.
Set Automatic Restore Points
1. Click Set automatic restore points.
2. Select an Automatic Restore Point Interval (by default the interval is 24
hours). Move the slider to select the amount of disk space used on the
OneTouch III Mini Edition for available restore points (by default, the
value is 12%).
3. Click Apply.
Note: Decreasing the percentage of disk space used may reduce the
number of available restore points.
Creating a Restore Point
You may either create a restore point manually or set a regular time for a
restore point to be created automatically. To manually create a restore
point:
1. From EasyManage, click the Rollback button.
2. Click Create a restore point of my current system. The Rollback: Create
Restore Point window is displayed. In the field provided, enter a name
for your restore point.
3. Click Create. A window displays that the Creation of your restore point
is in progress. When finished, you will be notified that the restore point
has been created.
4. Click OK to return to the Rollback menu.
