Daily Restore point?
Is there a way to have a restore point created daily upon first bootup (I
turn my system off each night). Thanks!

Daily Restore point?
LMO,
It's possible using WMI script. Here is a compiled program. http://www.dougknox.com/xp/utils/xp_sysrestorepoint.htm How To Use the System Restore Utility with Windows Management Instrumentation in Windows XP: http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;295299 quote To Create a System Restore Point: set SRP = getobject("winmgmts:\\.\root\default:Systemrestore ") CSRP = SRP.createrestorepoint ("this is a test", 0, 100) /quote -- Ramesh, Microsoft MVP Windows XP Shell/User http://windowsxp.mvps.org "LMO" wrote in message ...

Daily Restore point?
Thanks. When a new restore point is created, does it replace previous
points? That is, if I put the restore point program in startup so that a new point is created for each re-boot, will the previous points be deleted or replaced? Thanks again!

Daily Restore point?
LMO,
It works the same way as you create the point manually. The previous restore points are not deleted by this procedure, but all the other general rules of System Restore applies. General Info about System Resto In case of low disk space, System Restore deletes the snapshots in FIFO basis. And the older points are deleted after the TTL (Time to Live) is expired. The restore point is deleted because 90 days is the default time to live. -- Ramesh, Microsoft MVP Windows XP Shell/User http://windowsxp.mvps.org "LMO" wrote in message ... Thanks.
