Follow this procedure to use the System Restore feature.

IMPORTANT:

* This procedure must be performed while logged in as Administrator or to an account with Administrator rights.
* The System Restore procedure will restore the Registry and other settings back to the date and time selected. No data will be lost. Saved documents and e-mail will not be affected by performing a System Restore.
* Any hardware or software that has been installed after the date of the restore point will need to be reinstalled.
* 200MB of free hard drive space is required to perform a system restore.

NOTES:

* If the operating system will not start in Normal Mode, restart the computer in Safe Mode (by pressing the F8 Key at the startup).

Code:
C:\Windows\System32\Restore\Rstrui.exe
and then on the keyboard , press the ENTER key to start the System Restore.
* If the mouse is not available, use the TAB key, or ARROW keys to make the selection.
