Re: how do i clean up i.e.delete restore points ??



Hi,

I would suggest reducing the amount of disk space System Restore is set
to hold restore points. Reducing the Store size will purge the oldest
restore points on a First In Firsts Out (FIFO) bases and leave as many
recent restore points as the new size will allow.

Here are some tips on adjusting disk space and keeping System Restore
healthy.
