System Restore

[Jerry Ross]

How can I find the "System Checkpoints" screen that the
system automatically creates every 10 hours that Windows
is operating or every 24 hrs? When I tried to restore my
computer to an earlier time using
Start/Programs/Accessories/System Tools/System Restore
I got a screen showing a MAY calendar with todays date
highlighted and a message "There are currently no restore
points available".
Is it possible that the automatically created "System
Checkpoints" can be found in MS-DOS? If so, how can I find
them?
I have never performed a manual system restore and I never
disabled "system restore" on the "File System
Properties"screen.

Thank you very much, Jerry Ross

If the calendar shows no checkpoints, then you don't have any - period.

What happens when you attempt to manually create a checkpoint?
