Are you facing any issues on your PC after installing a
software or a driver update?😪 Want to go back in time to undo the changes you
made? That’s where the system restore point comes handy. Windows automatically
create restore points whenever you install or update something so that if
something goes wrong, you can always come back to the point where everything
was stable. This feature literally saved my PC once🤗. You can learn how to use
them below👇.
But hey, want to know how this thing helped me? So one day I
was tweaking the registry and I accidently deleted a series of registry keys
named as ‘Wow6432Node’ which is used for separating view of
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE for 32-bit applications that run on 64-bit Windows
versions😑. The next second my PC started restarting itself several times and it
failed to boot. I tried everything to get it booted to windows. Even tried to
reset the entire PC, but an error came and it didn’t work. Then I came to know
about restore point and tried it. It took about 3 hours, but finally I was able
to get everything as before thanks to this feature. LESSON LEARNED: Never mess
with windows registry😄.
How to create a restore point?
Although windows automatically create one, you can always
manually create a restore point before making any changes just to be safe. To
create one,
Press Win Key+S and type ‘create a restore point’ and hit
enter. Click on create on the pop-up window.
Give it a name so that you can recognize it later and click
create. That’s it!✔
How to use system restore point?
For undo changes, go to the same window and click on system
restore and next.
From here, click on the restore point which you have created
and press next then finish. Your PC will now start to restore to a previous
state👏. Give it some time to finish and you will be able to see the changes in
your PC. Don’t worry about your documents, pictures and videos since no changes
will be done to user files👍. If you have any doubts regarding this topic, feel
