Howdy All,

I'm looking for a definitive answer on System Restore.

1) Does it 'restore' the registry to that date, cleanup ALL references added since then?

2) Will it level files intact which were added since that date (i.e. docs, PDFs, etc.)?

3) Does it remove programs installed since that date?

Thanks and sorry for my ignorance!

Brian
