Is there a better alternative to Windows System Restore?
Yes. But first should be aware of how Windows System Restore works and its limitations. In Windows system restore, the PC user may create a new restore point manually, roll back to an existing restore point, or change the System Restore configuration. Moreover, the restore itself can be undone. Old restore points are discarded in order to keep the volume's usage within the specified amount. For many users, this can provide restore points covering the past several weeks. Users concerned with performance or space usage may also opt to disable System Restore entirely. Files stored on volumes not monitored by System Restore are never backed up or restored. One of the main deterents from using Windows system restore is that over time System Restore will consume resources and slow down your PC.
