Windows 10 Pro workstations on a Windows Server 2008 R2 domain. &nbsp;I'd like to set a weekly restore point creation on say Friday or Monday but the steps i've followed have lead to dead ends. &nbsp;I was following this link: &nbsp;<a href="https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windowsserver/en-US/85a9363c-7617-46fe-aebe-7ee5b6d2feca/configure-system-restore-schedule-via-group-policy?forum=winserverGP" rel="ugc nofollow">https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windowsserver/en-US/85a9363c-7617-46fe-aebe-7ee5b6d2feca/configure-system-restore-schedule-via-group-policy?forum=winserverGP</a> -- <br />

My problem: &nbsp;When I get to Scheduled Tasks -&gt; select &quot;New&quot; -&gt; Scheduled Task -&gt; It asks for the following: &nbsp;Action, Name, Run, Arguments, Start In, Comments, Run As:,| &nbsp;I created a name &quot;System Restore Points&quot; but it REQUIRES that I choose a program in the &quot;Run&quot; box. &nbsp;Servers do not inherently have System Restore to my knowledge though it's browsing the local machine. &nbsp;How do I have it call something from the workstation instead of the server? &nbsp;I can't look at any of the other tabs until I choose something here.

Windows 10 Pro workstations on a Windows Server 2008 R2 domain.  I'd like to set a weekly restore point creation on say Friday or Monday but the steps i've followed have lead to dead ends.

My problem:  When I get to Scheduled Tasks -> select "New" -> Scheduled Task -> It asks for the following:  Action, Name, Run, Arguments, Start In, Comments, Run As:,|  I created a name "System Restore Points" but it REQUIRES that I choose a program in the "Run" box.  Servers do not inherently have System Restore to my knowledge though it's browsing the local machine.  How do I have it call something from the workstation instead of the server?  I can't look at any of the other tabs until I choose something here.

I'd like to set a group policy forcing a weekly system restore point creation.
