When your system is malfunctioning on Windows 10, returning to a restore point can save the day. Still need to know how to configure it. We explain the procedure to you in this guide.
On Windows 10, your system can obviously become suddenly dysfunctional. This can occur in particular following the installation of software, an update or drivers. As a result, it can be very useful to restore to an earlier (and bug-free) version of your system. Which will certainly remove a big thorn from your foot.
Especially since it will not delete your personal files. Only applications, drivers or updates – installed following the creation of this famous restore point – will be erased. As Microsoft points out, restore points are usually created automatically when a new application is installed. But to avoid unpleasant surprises, it is best to configure one manually before each significant change made to your computer.
