Question

restore point

Aug 29, 2011 8:38AM PDT

I would like to go back to a further restore point than my computer is offering with the current system restore. Is there a way to specifically put in a date to restore? I don't want to have to go back to the original factory settings? Thanks

While it wipes out our files and apps, we have System Recovery on many PCs today.
