No, the restore points are just backups. They save installation time
only in the sense that a restore is quite a bit faster than
reinstalling the system from scratch. :)
If one restore point does not do what you want, try an earlier one.

The restore points are only used when you manually run the System
Restore program and restore to one of the saved settings.
Restore points are deleted automatically by the system when the
allocated space is reached. You don't need to do anything about them.
