Windwos 7 intelligently create restore points Save hard disk space

  
        

In the Windows XP era, users can solve backup and restore through Ghost. But when the operating system enters the Windows 7 era, using Ghost backup and restore, obviously not as good as the system's own restore function. The problem is that when System Restore is enabled in Windows 7, it automatically creates a restore point (the default period is one day). The more restore points, the less hard disk space will be.

Thus, we can consider making Windows 7 automatically create restore points more "smart", such as the system default to create once a day, modified to create once every two or three days.

Tips: Not the same Windows 7 restore point

There may be some users do not know, Windows 7 does not automatically create restore points by default, you must manually open the relevant services before you can (Want to know how to open it manually? Please continue to pay attention to ZOL software...)

Run the registry and expand to the following branch: HKEY_LOCAL_MacHINESOFTWAREMicrosoft

Windows NTCurrentVersionSystemRestore.

Then find and double-click "RPsessionInterval" in the right window, you can see in the pop-up window that the system default is "0" (in seconds, decimal, as shown in Figure 1).


Figure 1 RPSessionInterval default value

In order to facilitate the conversion, please select "decimal" in Figure 1, then the value "172800" (do not enter double quotes), as shown in Figure 2 Shown:


Figure 2

In Figure 2, "172800" stands for 172,800 seconds, which is two days. If you want Windows 7 to create a restore point every three days, enter "259200" in decimal. And so on.
