As a simple workaround, do you need System Restore as part of your XPe
runtime? If not, you can simply disable or remove the component from your
runtime. Take a look for the components "System Restore Core" and "System
Restore User Interface".
We'll investigate the runaway disk consumption behavior that you're seeing
with this component. Thank you for pointing it out.
