Restoring Your Operating System

System Restore

The Microsoft

®

Windows

®

operating systems

provide a System Restore option which allows

you to return your computer to an earlier

operating state (without affecting data files) if

changes to the hardware, software, or other

system settings have left the computer in an

undesirable operating state. Any changes that

System Restore makes to your computer are

completely reversible.

CAUTION: Make regular backups of your
data files. System Restore does not monitor
your data files or recover them.

Starting System Restore

1. Click Start

.

2. In the search box, type

System Restore

and press <Enter>.

NOTE: The User Account Control window

may appear. If you are an administrator on

the computer, click Continue; otherwise,

contact your administrator to continue the

desired action.

3. Click Next and follow the instructions on the

screen.

In the event that System Restore did not resolve

the issue, you may undo the last system restore.
