System Restore Control
-
Version
2.0
Windows XP System Restore default settings use up to
12% of your disk space, creates a Restore Point every
24 hours and keeps old points for 90 days before
deleting. Microsoft doesn't provide any adjustments
except for the slider where you may move it below 12%
but any time System Restore is
stopped/started/suspended or a check point is restored
it automatically moves the slider back to its default
of 12%. This uses up an enormous amount of space
unnecessarily that could be put to better use. We
only need the last good Restore Point or maybe the
last few but certainly not one that's 3 months old.
Using the settings that are right for you will save
Gigabytes of space.
System Restore Control gives you complete control over
how it behaves with adjustments for;
1. Set the maximum disk space used to as low as 1%
2. Change frequency of automatic Restore Points
to as much as 7 days or as little as one hour
3. Change time to keep old Restore Points before
deleting to as little as 7 days.
New features in version 2.0;
1. Now lists all available Restore Points and
Restore Operations
2. Creates Restore Points
3. Restores your System using available Restore
Points
4. Pause Control, useful when making System
changes or installing an application you trust.
