How does system restore work? It is so easy to fuck up my PC and then reverse it in 2 minutes using system restore.


I have a strong personality, so bite me.

it basically undoes any changes and uninstalls any programs (including spyware and other junk) made after the saved point in time. I've done a system recovery (to factory default) like a million times on this thing I feel like a whole universe is being destroyed and born again when I do.

it does not always work. I once had to do a complete reformat of my laptop to get the internet to work again
