Previous month in System Restore not shown

[Guest]

Have a question. Can not go back to November in System Restore. Can only see
the restore points for December. Have max space allocated to System Restore.
Any ideas.

The Restore Points are gone.
Whether someone deleted then, they were deleted automatically, space is
limited or heavy disk use etc deleted them is easier for you to answer than
for us.

What actual size/capacity is "max" space?
in mb(s). how much free space do yuo have?

Hi Larry,

There are several reasons this may occur. Let's take a look at Event
Viewer for any System Restore logs that may have been created recently
that may help us diagnosing the problem.

Go to Start - Run and type eventvwr.msc and press enter.
Click on System in the left pane.
Click the gray title "Source" at the top of the source name column in
the right pane to sort by source name, look for "sr" and "srservice".
Double click on each of these events, then click on the button below the
two arrows in the upper right corner. This will copy the event
information to the clipboard. Paste the information for each of the two
event here. There's no need to post duplicate Event ID's.

How do I use the Event Viewer to search for System Restore logs?
