Hey everyone,
Sometimes I run across Computers that have too many Restore Points in them "even to the point where they almost take up all the room on a drive". Restore Point area (Shadow Storage) will keep filling up unless you limit that space. This is the way I do it "with the work that I do", so I figured that I'd share...
***Run ALL AS ADMIN***
Delete all Restore Points with CMD:
Set System Restore Size with CMD:
This will set the Shadow Storage size to 10GB on the C: drive, you can edit the size to whatever you want. "Don't forget to create a new Restore Point with the next command!"...
Create System Restore Point With CMD:
This will create a new Restore Point with the day and date.
Very useful when doing Remote Support...
