Re: No auto restore points

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

This is weird....I got your reply, sced, but, I can't find my original post!
I have no idea what links were posted with mine. I just happended to see
"Re: No auto restore points" and saw it was you in response to my
'non-existent' post. As I can see my original below yours, would you mind
posting the links here, so I can get them? I'd appreciate it. I'm still
working on it. I know there must be something fooling Windows into thinking
it is not idle, but, I can't find anything that would do so.
