Data and system configuration backup in Windows XP
Windows XP 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 Windows XP quickly creates 
Restore Points—‘snapshots’ of your Windows 
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 Windows 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 Start.
2
Click Help and Support.
3
Under Pick a Task, click Undo changes to your 
computer with System Restore
.
4
Click Create a restore point, and then click Next.
5
In the Restore point description 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.
6
Windows creates the Restore Point and automatically 
stamps it with the current date and time.
