Hi all
I managed to get a Trojan on my system and somehow it also got backed
up in my system restore files. Is it possible to delete all the
system restore files as my system is now clean? Also where are they
located on my drive?
Thanks in advance
Steve
It got backed up in the System Restore files because it's in system
files that are affected.
To delete current sytem restore files, Start; Programs; Accessories;
Tools; System Restore.
Over on the left side, click on Settings
Click the box to turn OFF System REstore points. That will also delete
them all.
Exit out, go back into System Restore and turn them back on.
NOTE: You only need System Restore on your boot drive where the System
Files are located. So if you have drives C, D, E and F, and C is your
boot drive, as long as you haven't set any system files to non-default
locations, you only need System Restore set on drive C.
It does nothing but waste space on drives that do not have system
files on them, but windows defaults it to every drive on your system.
So turn it back on one drive at a time for just C: instead of clicking
to turn it back on for All Drives; save some disk space allocation on
the other drives.
