Importance of System Restore

Here are some of the reasons why System Restore is quite useful and helpful.

1.)When you get into sort of trouble like being infected with a virus today. And in worse scenario your anti-virus can't remove/heal the infected files. Stop trying to fix things the hard way since you can restore your computer the day when it was working properly. Or when it was not being infected by viruses and marlware's.

You can choose a certain day when it didn't have the virus. In my case I usually create a restore point every when a necessary updates have been done. And  when a certain program and driver installation had been made.

2.) Having system restore as your backup can save you time. Instead of consuming it by performing a full scan that would take more than 30 mins or more depending on the speed of your computer and the size of your HDD.

 3.)If you are infected by a virus system restore adds to your options of choices in order to fix the problem.

Usually if you are infected by a virus here are your possible choices and basic actions.

• Scan your computer with your updated Anti Virus. Some anti virus can't detect and can't fix a certain virus especially if the anti-virus is not updated.
• Install another anti-virus and try to fix/remove the trojan, worm,virus, malware. (usually you need to install it during safe mode. Since some virus would not allow you to install new programs when your unit is infected)
• Use System Restore
• Reformat your computer(Last resort when all else fail)

At least you added another option and choice in your steps in fighting off this viruses and malwares. Since no one wants to do that formatting procedure that would delete your important files.

And in just a click your computer would be working the same day you left it. And it would be back to normal so that you can continue using it.
