    Default Excuse my Newbliness

    Since I've never done this before, I'd like to ask a simple method for reverting my computer to the way it was 2 days ago. Usually, I search the net if I have any problems, but I don't have the time for it right now.


    Short and sweet answer, that's all I need.

    I think you want to use system restore.

    System Restore is what your needing, but if your system was not backed up 2 days ago, theres no telling how far back it will go

    System Restore

    Type this in your browser
    C:\WINDOWS\system32\Restore
    Find a file named rstrui.exe
    Double click.

    Oh, really? I thought Windows XP periodically made restoration checkpoints. At least that's what Microsoft said. =/

    serious? system restore is just for minor problems.. ****ing up you're system settings.. downloading a program that refuses to uninstall itself.. accidently uninstalling half of windows.. and so on
