A few years ago I lost some important files and was able to reset the time to
before I lost the files.
Today, on a diff computer I was adding and removing programs and now realize
some things are gone from my desktop. I can't remember how to restore my
computer to the time before I started messing with it. Anyone have directions?
 
HI KT you are after system restore. Start menu - programs-accessories-system
tools - system restore.

Hope this helps
 
Hi,

System Restore monitors system files only. What files are you missing?

You will also want to uninstall any applications via add/remove programs
that were installed after the restore point being restored to. Any
application installed after the restore point you are reverting to may
not function. What happens is, System Restore only removes monitored
files for the installed applications and the remaining files are left
behind. This can cause the application not to function. And in some
cases, can also cause the uninstall and reinstall process of the
partially removed application to fail.
