Thread: Problems with Windows System Restore on ME

  1. #11
    i dun think u can do anything with them as long as u have System Restore on.
    to turn it off, http://www.pchell.com/virus/systemrestore.shtml
    hope that helps

    btw, if u wanna download a copy of winxp, i suggest that u go to a reputable/verified website.
    depending on wat filesharing software ur gonna use, it always have such websites dedicated to releasing verified stuff.

    Thanks Gildan I have turned System restore off (as per the tutorial) but I still cannot access the Retsore\Temp folder.

    This really sucks.

    I have emailed Mircro$0ft in case their techs can tell me how.

    It is my hard drive and I want it all ! 3 gigs out of 20 !

    Regards

    PS There must be some utility that will let me in there. I consider myself an intermediate user when it comes to OS's etc. But this has got me stumped.

    Thanks guys

    I have just fixed my problem and got my 3 gigs back.

    I did it through the Dos prompt !

    By carefully typing the folder names CD\ _Restore\Temp

    The folder name came up ! and I could do a DIR of all the CPY files and then I deleted them. They were no longer hidden !

    Lucky I am an old Doshead !

    Regards
