So in the meantime, I'll continue to disable this half-baked feature and I'll let others carry on with it. That's very generous of you, are you sure you want other people using stuff which you do not approve. |

Most everytime I have tried SR the thing wouldn't work or the restore points were all missing due to an update or some such, Just not too dependable. Rene |

Unless you're a guru on this stuff, only want to use your HD for
backup storage, want something intuitive and easy, want something likely to already be part of the OS, want backup taking a very modest amount of HD, and be very quick, THEN SR is probably for you. It's probably not perfect, but has always worked a number of times for me. Deleting old restore points and establishing a fresh point only takes about a minute ( for me). |

Restore = Ag? Or Restore = FeS2? |

Good work.
I didn't know about pyrite and an apparent +6 cation. |
