Windows System Restore
System Restore is a tool included in Windows 10. It monitors changes to Windows system files and saves
system state as a restore point. If your computer does not work well after installing apps, drivers, or updates,
you can revert your system to a previous restore point.

If you revert your system to a previous restore point, personal data is not affected.
System Restore creates restore points:
• automatically (when it detects changes to Windows system files)
• at regular intervals (if set up by the user)
• at any time (if initiated manually by the user)
