Hi All,
I have a problem where my spyware software is unable to delete something
which is only now present in the system restore file of a particular drive.
As I have a Maxtor OneTouch 3 external backup which runs daily I really no
longer need these restore files for all my other drives (I will keep my
system drives restore files) can anyone tell me how to locate them and delete
the files on the individual drives

Thanks in anticipation,
Lloyd
 
You'll need to turn-off System Restore, reboot, then turn it back on.
