How To Run Windows System Restore

---

The Windows System Restore Utility is intended to enable you to reverse changes to your system that have made it unstable.

System Restore may be able to help you fix a problem that you are having with your computer.

This can be especially true if your computer has suddenly become very slow or has stopped responding altogether or is slow to respond.

One great feature of System Restore is that it will not affect your personal data such as documents, photos, emails and such.

If you don't think it has helped or may have even made your problem worse, it is possible to completely reverse the previous system restore action.
