"Setting Restore to last month"

[David]

My computer worked ok until the 1st of May. I am trying to
use the System Restore program to set the system back to a
date in April. When I am on the screen with the calendar of
the present month (May)and try to use the back arrow to get
the previous month (April) it doesn't change to April. The
help button on the same screen doesn't respond to clicking it.

Hi

If you can't access any checkpoints for April, it means that they have been
deleted and you will only be able to use the ones that you can see. If you
need to go back to a Restore point that far back you will have to increase
the amount of disk space allocated to SR:

Right click on My Computer, select Properties and then the System Restore
tab. Highlight the appropriate drive and then click on Settings. Adjust
the slider as needed.
