> How To Delete System Restore Points

[Bugsy]

(You must only use this feature if you are 100% sure you will not need the old system restore points, because once they have been deleted... they are gone for good!)


Click the Start Button and type CleanMgr and Press Enter;

Choose your Default Hard Drive (normally Drive C) and click ok;



The clean Manager will now Search through your system for files to delete;



When Clean Manager is done Calculating, click on clean up my system files;



And again select your drive;



It is now calculating the system files to delete;



Select more option Now click The Clean Up Tab under “System Restore and Shadow Copies”, to remove all but the most recent restore point;




Hope you found this useful!

How much memory to the restore points take up? Nice post btw.

It depends on the tasks before the system restore point has been made ie updates/installation of a program..... it all depends on what actions are being performed, it is difficult to put a figure on it but i would an average of 1GB in some cases but like i said it all depends on the actions prior.
