I always turn
off restore I hate it. Call me paranoid but it scares me.
I won't call you paranoid, but I'll call you foolish for doing that.
System Restore is not a cure for all problems, and is certainly not a
substitute for a backup. But it is a very useful tool, one that has gotten
me and many others out of trouble many times.
It's a very easy quick way to revert your operating system to the condition
it was in a day or a few days ago, and that's all it's meant for. Turning
off a valuable safeguard lik t his makes no sense at all.
