    You have tried TU Now. I have used/tried it years back !
    1
    Now You say Tuneup utilities will DELETE ALL System Restore Points.
    Why all this troubles? using an external application?

    2.
    In Windows itself you can set Do not Create System Restore Points.
    WHY create SRP in the first place. and then want to delete all ?
    The very purpose of having at least ONE System Restore Point is defeated.
    3.
    You can also save more diskspace by deleting/transferring/ System update files/ system Update uninstall files . will Save more disk space.!

    4. I presume you don't need any System Restore Points in your computer.
    Most of us need it , when there is some problem in system.
    more FREE Disk space is secondary.

    5. You can check how much free space you can get from this application. Select only JUNK
    files.
    Or interested in deleting pictures etc select later!

    No, dear friend... I said I have tried the trial version too....
    I first tried Tu about 2 years back and very impressed with it all the way.....

    It is always nice to have the sysytem restore enabled for guys who do a lot of software testing, keygen stuff and so on.....
    Even if we forget to create a restore point, automatically it will be created.....

    But in case everything goes well, this space used by the restore points is often a waste of hard disk usage....

    I remember when I first purchased my laptop, it came preloaded with Vista and the system restore was active....

    It did help me sort out a few problems.....

    However one fine day, I found system restore created too many restore points and taking up about 27Gb space.....

    That's when I started deleting the unwanted restore points.....
