On seeing a lot of people advising to reduce the amount of space allowed for
System Restore I did so but have found that when I needed to do a System
Restore to go to the last one took me back about 2 weeks previous. I have a
40gb hard disc.I have now increased it from 3% to 4%. I would ideally like
a Restore Point made weekly up to my agreed use of the hard disc and then
the older ones deleted to make way for the newer ones.
Is there a way of setting up a weekly Restore Point automatically

Hi Ramesh
I have checked my settings and they are as you say they should be.
