When a Windows XP user asks how to fix a problem they`ve recently started having with their PC my first response is to use System Restore to roll it back to a point just before the problem started.
I`ve found the majority either don`t know how to use it, don`t know what it does, turned it off because it uses too much disk space and virtually all say that Microsoft`s Help file is not very helpful to which I`d agree. However it is one of the best utilities Microsoft has ever written and works extremely well.
Using System Restore is a straightforward, step by step help guide explaining how to use it with a minimal amount of disk space, what it does and how it works. System Restore can return your system to an earlier state if problems are caused by a program you installed, malicious web sites, recovery of deleted files even after you`ve emptied the Recycle Bin, a corrupted Registry as well as many other common problems.
By using it regularly you`ll always be able to fix a problem in minutes. The article is available for viewing online and as a downloadable Help file (.chm) for installation on your PC. |
