Hio Cristy. I have System Restore that come with the computer, I set a Restore Date and when I go to use it a week later it is gone . Had nothing but trouble with it . A good tradesman never blames his tools , lol , so I guess it is me . I deleted System Restore and got " Go Back " by Roxio , lovely . wouldn't use any thing else , got me out of a lot of trouble many times. I am a lousy tradesman and need a lot of good help.

On one computer I have it never works, (althought it did long time ago), I thought it was always working on the other until the other night after I created a restore point and it would not let me restore to an earlier restore point. cristy (use xp home).
