How To Use Windows Vista System Restore 

great video, but to much unnecessary talk

@gemagardner You should see a link to older System Restore points but this all depends on the space you have given to System Restore on your system.

Thank you!!!!!! I just disable windows defender and viruses showed!!! But you saved my PC!!! Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for the video it helped me a lot. I didn't mind the talking at least it was pleasant to listen to.

OMG thank u so much XD u sir just fixed my laptop OMG u are the best thank u

Tyvm! Very easy to follow. And it's great that you explained what and why instead of just saying "click here, click there etc." as if we were mindless robots! So awesome job! :-)

my kidneys when I drink normal water after a whole week of pure mountain dew

Nevermind, its there. It wasnt there cause i had my computer on safe mode. Thanks bro helped alot (;

THANK U FIXED MY CRAPPY COMPUTER

@gemagardner Have you tried the "Choose a different restore point" option and not going with the recommended restore?

I tried to create a system restore point but it says it could not be created due to a catastrophic failure (0x8000FFF) please try again.

Very clear video and easy to understand. Thank you.

Hello, Apparently I can set my restoration back earlier than the beginning of my problems. What can I do?

Great explanation.

Guys your fucking restoring your whole.computer that could mess everything up. Would you rather A. long lecture and not have the whole thing screwed up or B. Him get to the point and you get your computer screwed up.

I don't have those options on my Toshiba Windows Vista Home Premium (that i can find). It only allows me to system restore, but no apparent options to factory reset to prepare for laptop donation. Is there another way? Thanks!

THANKS SO MUCH, I DID WHAT I WANTED I GOT WHAT I WANTED

Very helpful thank you sir.

Thanks for the info very useful

i need to do a factory restore and delete everything from when it was brand new

I have a question I have a problem with my computer (HP Pavilion dv6000), few weeks ago, its started giving me errors, crash, hang, freezes, etc. n mostly i do is to restart or download a program that could help... anyways, Does system restore will help remove all error and missing program? and why does system restore took a very long time continuously? ryt now its 4 or 5 hours from now...

Thanks for the help

Can you please help I've done this four times now each at a different point and each time I get an error message saying that it didn't work do I want to go to system restore. The main point I went to was a manual point that I made after re setting up my PC again when all was good. Any ideas why this would keep failing and how I could possibly fix my problems. Many thanks.

I have an asus, vista and I need to restore to factory settings without the disc.. How do I do it!????

Help! Windows vista starts up and glitches out on the welcome screen, and the computer restarts itself. It still works in safe mode, but has a low resolution and no sound. Do you know how to fix this?
