Restoring a Recovery Commander Checkpoint

Use Recovery Commander to restore your computer to a previous state. Recovery Commander scans your computer for available checkpoints. It displays a list that includes the checkpoint name and time that it was created.

After you restore from a checkpoint, you must reinstall any software that you installed after the checkpoint was created.

To restore a Recovery Commander checkpoint:

1 On the Fix & Maintain tab, click System Recovery and choose Restore Checkpoint.

2 Select a Recovery Commander checkpoint to restore.

3 To restore specific items, select the Identify differences before restore check box. For more information, see Partially Restoring a Checkpoint.

4 Click Next.

5 In the dialog box that appears, choose to continue or to create a checkpoint of your computer right now, select the Create an Undo checkpoint and a System Restore Undo checkpoint check box.

By creating Undo checkpoints, if restoring the checkpoint you selected does not meet with your approval, you can return to the current state.

6 Click OK.

Recovery Commander creates the Undo checkpoints, if you have chosen to create them, and then restores the selected checkpoint. Recovery Commander restarts your computer.

NOTE: If Scan Disk starts when you restart your computer, allow it to finish.
