Where to get information on restoring the system to a system restore point - Windows 10 and 11

Description

The installation of a program or a driver may cause an unexpected change to the computer or cause Windows to behave unpredictably. System Restore helps restore your computer's system files to an earlier point in time. This is a way to undo system changes to the computer without affecting personal files, such as e‑mail, documents, or photos.

System Restore is not intended for backing up personal files, so it cannot help recover a personal file that has been deleted or damaged. Regularly back up personal files and important data using a backup program.

For information about using System Restore, go to:
