System Restore Problem

Nov 28, 2004 8:53PM PST

I have two computers. On one, there are three options within the System
Restore program. They are: (a.) Restore My Computer to an Earlier Time,
(b.) Create a Restore Point, and (c.) Undo My Last Restoration. However,
the third option does not exist on my other computer. Both are Windows XP
machines with SP2 installed. How can I get that third option for the second
computer? Thanks in advance for your assistance.

The third option only shows after you restore to an earlier time.

reason that you don't have Undo My Last Restoration on the other machine because you haven't done a system restore on it.
