System Restore Keeping Only One Restore Point



Hello,

I have the system restore turned on. The space I've allowed for storage is
3% or 1075 MB.

But System Restore is only keeping one restore point. When it creates
another automatically, it deletes the previous restore point, so
basically, it's of no value right now. If I create a restore point
manually, the previous restore point is kept.... at least right now I have
two restore points from today, because I just created one. But when SR
creates a new restore point automatically, all previous SR points will be
deleted.

I've turned off System Restore, re-booted... then turned on System Restore
and re-booted again. But it's still the same.

I'd sure appreciate any tips on this issue.

Thanks in advance,
Danno
