Re: How to remove the folder "System Volume Information"?

The folder will always be present, no matter how you configure SR.

In part this is why XP by default doesn't show certain content with
Explorer.

To disable System Restore monitoring for a particular drive, try this:

1. Click Start, right-click My Computer, and then click Properties.
2. Click the System Restore tab.
3. Select the drive-letter from the list, and click Settings.
4. Select "Turn off System Restore on this drive"
5. Click OK twice to close the dialog.
