How to Create Restore Points in Windows 10
You should always capture restore points right before you change anything such as installing a new program. That way if the latest changes to your computer somehow foul it up completely, you can go back to a restore point right before you made any changes.
To create a restore point, follow these steps:
1. Click in the Search text box in the Taskbar and type restore point. A menu appears, listing Create a restore point as an option.
2. Click Create a restore point in the menu. A System Properties dialog box appears.
3. Click the Configure button. A Restore Settings window appears.
4. Make sure the Turn on system protection radio button is selected and then click the OK button.
5. Click the Create button. A System Protection dialog box appears, asking for a descriptive name for your restore point.
6. Type a descriptive name for your restore point such as a date, and click the Create button. A dialog box appears to let you know when the creation of the restore point is done.
7. Click the Close button to make this dialog box disappear.
