Troth, can you tell me how System Restore is supposed to work? I had a bad download a week or so ago and decided to restore to a point before that happened. There were no set restore points, so the first one I was able to choose was a week prior. I did that and it acted like it was restoring, then when it finished I got a message like 'sorry, no can do.' The next point it would let me "choose" was a month prior and even THAT wouldn't work. Are these restore points supposed to be set in advance? Or what? It used to just restore to where I wanted it to, or somewhere close to it, but I haven't used it in a while and now it's all goofy. I understand it's a great resource hog, maybe I should remove it (?) Any insight appreciated ~Glo ----- Original Message ----- From: ~OoO~ To: pctechtalk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Tuesday, November 29, 2005 10:50 PM Subject: -=PCTechTalk=- Re: AV quarenteen Sorry for the late response. Just found a bunch of email in another folder and have no idea how it all got there. This post happens to be one of them. System Restore... if System Restore is active, you have the System Restore services running. Should it be active? Yes, if you want the protection offered by the service... the safety of being able to revert back to previous settings. -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.
