Data and system configuration backup in the Windows
®
 operating 
system
The Windows
®
 operating system offers some easy-to-use features 
for backing up your Windows
®
 settings and your data 
documents 
and other important files. Take advantage of these features to 
protect yourself from much more difficult and time-consuming 
restoration procedures, and to safeguard your valuable data from 
loss.
Saving system configuration with restore points
The System Restore feature of the Windows
®
 operating system 
quickly creates restore points 
-
 ‘snapshots’ of your Windows
®
 
operating system configuration 
-
 and saves them for later recall. If 
you experience problems after installing some new hardware or 
software, you can easily select a previously established Control 
Point to ‘turn back the clock,’ restoring the Windows
®
 operating 
system to the state it was in just prior to the installation. This is 
much easier and more effective than uninstalling the hardware or 
software, which often leaves behind unwanted files and settings. It 
is also easy to undo a restore point selection, if you change your 
mind.
Follow these steps to create a restore point using the System 
Restore utility:
1
Click StartControl PanelSystem and Security, and then 
System.
2
In the left pane, click System protection.
The System Protection tab of the System Properties window 
appears.

Click Create...
4
In the input field, enter a name that is descriptive enough to be 
easily understood in the future, such as “Before installing 
Brand X Accounting app.” Then click Create.
The Windows
®
 operating system creates the restore point, 
automatically stamps it with the current date and time, and 
displays a message that the restore point was successfully 
created.
