SYSTEM RESTORE WINDOWS 10: Restore your PC to an earlier time and date

[@JoKer-il3vy]

Thank you! Glad it helped.

[@jboyce98]

I followed your instructions step by step as you spoke. You are very clear and your easy pace is perfect. The problem I'm having is that I need to restore to two weeks ago and there is no restore point available beyond 5 days. The issues started after a Windows update. Unless I remove one update at a time to see where the problem came from, and there were about 50 changes or so, I guess I might have to scrub the computer and start again.

[@EasyPcRepairs]

Thank you for your comment. I had a similar issue some time ago where a Windows update would not allow me to connect to the Internet. Luckily for me, it had only given me 2 Windows updates at once so it was easy to sort out. With many updates though, it can be more tricky.

[@jboyce98]

@@EasyPcRepairs I have to log into every site each time I reboot. No one at the Microsoft community seems to be experiencing the same issue, so likely I need to save everything to an external hard drive and scrub the computer. Thank you.

[@Jaime_Estevez]

all very clear, but I have a problem... what if I don't have any previous day configured to restore? now I only see the one I made following your steps

[@EasyPcRepairs]

If there are no restore points to use, Windows has not created any restore points within the last 90 days (restore points older than 90 days are deleted automatically). Windows usually creates 1 or 2 restore points each month automatically, but this is not guaranteed to happen. If you have no restore points, then 'system restore' cannot help you this time.

I checked as you suggested & protection is on. But only restore point was done

[@EasyPcRepairs]

If moving backwards (using system restore) doesn't help, sometimes problems can be solved by moving forwards instead (updating your video editor, updating Windows). Maybe give that a try to see if it helps.

[@JOEZEP54]

@@EasyPcRepairs Thank you I will give that a try.

[@gracejoubarne6323]

Excellent video, but there were no other restore points to choose from, not even Windows automatic restore points...

[@EasyPcRepairs]

Sometimes that can happen. Windows will only create a restore point automatically before certain events (such as a Windows update). Also, if you have 'Windows System Restore' turned off, it will not make any restore points.

[@bluwolf098]

If you've reset your pc, you cannot go back to a previous version.

You can only create a restore point at the time and day you set it (as you've mentioned). If you want to go back further, use one of the Windows auto restore points, or one that you've set at a previous time and date.

thanks for the video its is vert informative, btw my pc is having trouble booting up, it shows windows logo and dots going in circles and then suddenly freezes, what can you recommend to this? thanks

[@EasyPcRepairs]

That problem could be a few things. In your situation, I would create a Windows recovery drive. That simply involves telling Windows to create a recovery drive (on another computer), and telling it which drive you would like as your recovery drive (for example, a USB flash drive or a DVD disk). Then boot from the recovery drive (on the computer your having problems with) and run check disk. That will check your hard drive for any errors and try to fix them.

There's usually various options available before formatting a drive. For example, if you have a corrupted file, Windows "Check Disk" could be run to solve that problem automatically. It depends on the problem that your computer has.

If you're having problems typing on many different apps then there's most likely a problem with the keyboard. Sometimes a key will get stuck that stops anyone from typing anything out. Try bringing up the Windows 10 onscreen keyboard to see if you can type that way for now.
