[-Draino-]

Hey all,

Anyone know if there is a way to "reset" the info in the Reliability Monitor
that is in the Reliability and Performance application?


TIA

This can be accomplished, but it is not really recommended. One of the
biggest problems when troubleshooting system problems is determining what
happened and what caused it to happen. Reliability Monitor gives you a day
to day analysis of application and driver installations, records failures in
applications, hardware, and the operating system. Reliability Monitor will
be valuable when troubleshooting problems because it allows you to quickly
see changes even if the user is not aware of them.

The Reliability Analysis Component (RAC) calculates a stability index over a
period of time and tracks changes that are likely to affect stability. It
displays this information in the Stability Chart. This chart contains
information that goes back to the time when Vista was last installed.

If you still want to reset this important information, open Windows Explorer
and navigate to the C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\RAC
Folder. There are 2 sub-folders named Published Data and State Data. Copy
these 2 sub-folders somewhere safe and then delete the contents of the 2
folders.

The Reliability Monitor will show as empty until it has checked the system
which happens every 24 hours.

If you decide that you want the information back, just copy the 2 folders
you saved back to their original locations.
