Windows 8 - Windows System Protection: Restore Points go back further
Hello,
I was looking at the restore points that have been created on my computer. I have Windows 8.1 and it does not go back that far. Is there anyway to change a setting in Windows to extend or provide more space for restore points so that it keep restores further back in the past? At the moment it only looks like a months worth of restore points (about 5 restore points) are kept.
Many thanks,
GISVPN

Go to Computer, right click, Properties, and then Advanced System Settings.
In the window that comes up, go to the System Protection tab. Click on Configure Protection Settings and provide more disk space (percent of total) for restore points. That will allow you to go back farther.
