- See how to use system restore, set a restore point and 3 ways to restore your Windows 10 PC back to an earlier time and date when your computer was working without any problems. I show how to use system restore when you can start up Windows, and 2 ways to use system restore for when you can't. System restore can undo many problems to bring your computer back to a good working order.
Thank you so much for:
1- good quality video
2- good sound quality (which is actually the most important)
3- clear and easy to understand
Edit: 4- no intro and no outro
You're very welcome, glad you liked it!
The second most important is that there is no intro and outro or annoying music
@@aggelosziogas that is very true
I will edit it
I really love how you express yourself, very calm and slow so that everyone can follow your steps. It made me calm down after raging and giving up.
Also I always thought that I had to manually create a restore point, thank god that I found this video, you got yourself a new subscriber.
I'm glad you found this helpful and thanks for subscribing too!
@@EasyPcRepairs Hello Sir, I'm trying to restore to an older date. Oldest restore point I'm seeing is about 4 days and my issue predates that. Is there any way to create an older restore point? Thanks for your assistance.
If there are no restore points that you need, then 'System Restore' cannot help you this time around.
@@EasyPcRepairs Fortunately I used the oldest one and it worked. Thanks for your help.
No problem!
Two years later and this still saved my life.
Thank you for educating me on how to use my restore point named Bean.
Stay safe, my dude. Thanks a lot. Words can't describe how thankful I am to find your video.
I'm glad this helped you out. Sounds like it saved you from a big problem.
Thank you !
Instructions were clear and not rushed through.
YOU'RE SUCH A HERO! My laptop got into a problem after editing the registry , but thank God after watching this my laptop went back to its normal state and its okay now! Thank you and God bless you!!
That's great to hear! Yes, after a registry edit that's not worked out well, system restore is a good option.
How long did it take?? Mine took 45 minutes already and it's still going
@@AthosGarima mine took 15-20min.

Best tutorial on restore point.... So humble and detailed... I always thought restore should be only used on safe mode... But your vdo showed that if you can't windows normally... Then choose safe mode for restore.. Cleared my doubt.. Thanks
Thank you! Glad it helped.
THANK YOU after watching almost all the videos I could've found this one worked God bless you 🤩🤩🙏

Thank you so much sir. I spent whole day to fix my problem and eventually fixed it with the help of this video.
That's great! I'm glad it helped you fix your problem.
Great video and so helpful as I am a non-tech guy and need this type of easy-to-follow video. Well done
Thank you!
Thank you. Your explanations are by far the most pleasant and easy to follow.
You're very welcome!
Excellent video as usual. Thank you!
Fabulous. You save me a whole load of grieve with Windows 10 troublesome install
Glad to help!
I have another thing that shows after I select a restore point, It’s a thing that says “please select the drive that contains windows” without showing the finish tab yours did. I have tried to figure it out but in that tab it’s blank with no drives to choose from so I can’t choose the one with windows like stated before.
Spectacular tutorial! Thank you very much! Very user friendly. Suscribed!!❤
That's great, thanks for subbing!
TYSM BRO, By mistake I changed one driver for another making my keyboard not work but thanks to this video I was able to reverse that change :)
Glad this video helped you sort out your driver problem.
What about a disk partitioned into three. Do I have to create new restore point for each drive and restore it separately sir ?
Thanks for your time sir!
No problem!
Thank you! Very helpful :)
You're welcome!
Awesome and useful video. Your new sub 💪
Thank you! And thanks for subbing too!
Thanks very helpful and usefull info
You’re a leyend my man! Thanks a lot!!! 💖
Will this help have the desktop icons go back to normal? My pc did something very dumb and idk why it happened. It deleted half of the icons.
Thanks for this!
My pleasure!
Will all programs I had opened be opened after I've "restored"???
very helpful....thank you very much for sharing
Glad to help!
Excellent thank you!
I did something to a game I was playing and wanting to change back the mods I did. Will this change them back to what it was In the folder ?
Hi there. I am not able to use the searchbar to search for recovery. Not able to write on so many things on the computer, I can here now, but not on the Windows system. My laptop is behaving very strange. Don't know what to do.
thanks for the video its is vert informative, btw my pc is having trouble booting up, it shows windows logo and dots going in circles and then suddenly freezes, what can you recommend to this? thanks
That problem could be a few things. In your situation, I would create a Windows recovery drive. That simply involves telling Windows to create a recovery drive (on another computer), and telling it which drive you would like as your recovery drive (for example, a USB flash drive or a DVD disk). Then boot from the recovery drive (on the computer your having problems with) and run check disk. That will check your hard drive for any errors and try to fix them.
Hello - I moved a game from one drive to another, this game was modded, all the file paths have been messed up, and overall I’m just completely lost on how to fix it. If I restore my computer prior to the date I moved those files, will it be as though I never moved anything in the first place?
Thank you for the video very well explained but what my issue is I moved files around into folders I created,thinking I changed path? With system restore like you said didn’t undo the changes I made. How do I undo what I previously did? Thanks
Thank you! The only way to move the files back to the folders they were in before is to manually move them back again. There's no other way around it, unless you happened to have made an entire hard drive backup just before you moved any files.
I’ve been at the please wait while your windows file are being restore for over 2 hrs. Do I keep waiting ?
Thank you so much!!!
any single folder was not opening after doing some changes in regedit to speed up my computer. But after I restored my computer it hanged in the login screen it's not going further
But the cursor still works. Not even crtl alt del is working
Thank you so much. Man you know in windows 7 I didn't get any error it was working as a charm but why with windows 10 I got blue screens a lot I formatted it after 2 weeks I also get the blue screen stopcode . I was wondering why ? And how to solve these issues? Today the blue screen appears and it removed my wifi so my laptop know has no network signal
Thank you so much. I installed a new driver update and it bugged out.
I hope you have a long happy life.
Thanks, you too!
Can you help me fix my laptop? It wont show any windows feature. I tried the windows module installer fix but it didnt work. Even the sfc and dism scans did not work
Well my PC is crashing as soon as I turn it on or 5 min tops, there's a tab that pops up when I turn it on saying "this app can't open. Check the store for more info... So I'm wondering whether this will help out since I don't know what to do
Does it matter how much space you give to the thing at the start of the video or what
Nice!
Not gonna lie,very useful!
Glad you think so!
Will all programs I had opened be opened after I've "restored"???
Thank you really helpful
You're welcome!
I followed your instructions step by step as you spoke. You are very clear and your easy pace is perfect. The problem I'm having is that I need to restore to two weeks ago and there is no restore point available beyond 5 days. The issues started after a Windows update. Unless I remove one update at a time to see where the problem came from, and there were about 50 changes or so, I guess I might have to scrub the computer and start again.
Thank you for your comment. I had a similar issue some time ago where a Windows update would not allow me to connect to the Internet. Luckily for me, it had only given me 2 Windows updates at once so it was easy to sort out. With many updates though, it can be more tricky.
@@EasyPcRepairs I have to log into every site each time I reboot. No one at the Microsoft community seems to be experiencing the same issue, so likely I need to save everything to an external hard drive and scrub the computer. Thank you.
Thanks for this info. sir 😀
You're welcome!
I have a question: when i finish the restore point part are my deleted registry files gonna be restored too?
Yes, your deleted registry files will be restored.
Thanks
IT WAS VERY USEFULL
Glad it helped
What do I do if I never had system restore set up on my computer and I need to recover a folder with certain files and I need those files back to the original folder? I messed up with a virtual machine in virtual box and on the virtual machine, I need the files from that machine on virtual box. I accidentally moved sometimes to a different folder and stuff and I forgot which files were exactly where. Please help me!!! 🥺🥺🥺😢😢😢😭😭😭
Hello, your help would be much appreciated. I use shotcut for my YT video editing. About a week ago it started lagging & freezing up my computer. I tried everything I found online to clear memory even used Revo Uninstaller, issue persist. I checked Task Manager and system has 8.0 GB, in task manager it is showing 6.2 GB (0 MB) in use (compressed )1.7 Available, 6.7/ 22.9 GB C omitted, 1.7 GB Cached. and only 1.6 GB Available--Last night it was 5 plus GB, I only have Task Manager, Firefox & notepad open-- Paged pool 396MB, Non-paged pool 413 MB. I checked as you suggested & protection is on. But only restore point was done
If moving backwards (using system restore) doesn't help, sometimes problems can be solved by moving forwards instead (updating your video editor, updating Windows). Maybe give that a try to see if it helps.
@@EasyPcRepairs Thank you I will give that a try.
Can this fix my input lag problem I noticed after I installed this file for my video game ?
thank you bro worked fine
Hello, Your new sub from India!
Hello from England, thanks for subbing!
@@EasyPcRepairs welcome

This video helped me restore my pc to its original state, but my Windows search bar isn’t working how it used to. It can’t find anything in windows settings and the search in Windows settings is also broken. Do you know how to fix this?
Thank you, you saved my life
Glad to help!
Will all programs I had opened be opened after I've "restored"???
@angelicxmariam the programs were all closed.
My search box isn't working so how can I restore to a previous time. Every time I try to type something it stops at about 3 letters then goes off? Can you help?
Hello, how about if i don,t have ( show more restore point option) on my screen so what should i do to go back to an earlier dates, thanks
If "Show more restore points" does not appear, it means that there are no other restore points.
Is it possible to restore everything before the reset... I pressed remove everything... could I get it back?
If I have a game that saves itself on my hard drive, will this revert the game saves back to the system restore date? Or will the games saves not be affected? I want to try to undo changes done to my game save
goood question steam will not be affeced
how can I restore my drafts files in outlook express? I can't find the files. I somehow deleted over 100 emails in my drafts folder.What can I do to get them back? thanks
Thank you 👍
No worries!
How do i create a restore point to a week or even a month earlier.
This only creates a restore point on the day & time you set.
Thankyou for your description
You can only create a restore point at the time and day you set it (as you've mentioned). If you want to go back further, use one of the Windows auto restore points, or one that you've set at a previous time and date.
Hi and hello i wanna ask how can i do restore point cuz my keyboard isn’t working properly and it typing random words when i type a specific letter
You could use Windows onscreen keyboard instead.
What can I do when my pc shows an error while starting (create a restore point) and the error is no such interface supported.
Thank you so much
No problem
Your the best men
My system is attacked by ransomwhere attack, so if i switch back to the previous day so my all data is recover?
Ty ty ty ty ty sooooo much now i can play my games :D
Glad this helped!
My sister is currently having a problem with her pc, I told her about system restore and she's seen me do it before and was hoping to use it too. However there were no restore points when we tried to restore her pc apart from the one she made today while her pc isn't in a good state. Some advice would be nice thanks!
If you have no restore points (other than the one you've described), another option is to use a backup (if you have one). The only other options are to wipe the computer clean and start again, or to manually sort out the problem (remove problem programs, change back recently changed settings etc).
i have a issue with mfplat.dll and forgot to make a restore point before the issue
Hi man so i want to restore my Windows 10 version 21H2 and i want to restore without having to download the 21H2 version again
Restore point will delete old file older than 90 days. Is this included manual file?
what happens if the restore was successful but youre stuck on system boot up screen. its been about 3 or 4 hours since the restore was successful.
I have a question: I didn’t make a restore point before but i need to restore my computer since my camera stoped working and I accidentally uninstalled it while trying to fix it and now I don’t know how to reinstall it, but I didn’t make a restore point before so is it possible to restore it in another way?
If you haven't made a restore point and if Windows hasn't created one automatically, the only way to go back is to use a backup. That is if you've previously made a backup of your entire hard drive.
I clean reformat my laptop if I do this option can it be restored to the way it was before it was reformatted
If you reformat your drive, system restore cannot bring your computer back to how it was previously.
I did a Refresh to Mozilla Firefox. Didn't realize that the Refresh would cause the software to factory reset (that's what I get for not completely reading before pressing the button). I thought about a System Restore. Would the System Restore cause Firefox to reset to its prior state before the Refresh? Thank you.
Yes, if you use system restore it will put your Mozilla Firefox back to how it was at the time and date of the system restore point chosen.
all very clear, but I have a problem... what if I don't have any previous day configured to restore?
now I only see the one I made following your steps
If there are no restore points to use, Windows has not created any restore points within the last 90 days (restore points older than 90 days are deleted automatically). Windows usually creates 1 or 2 restore points each month automatically, but this is not guaranteed to happen. If you have no restore points, then 'system restore' cannot help you this time.
What the...? The first restore session didn't do anything but restore the computer to the this very moment you created the restore point, not to an earlier time.
I did it in hopes it would somehow give me another option to restore it to an earlier time.
Can you do on how to reduce lag on a laptop or pc?
I deleted some files from c drive,I can't restore it.can you please give some tips to recover my pc.
i suddenly started getting problems today and i haven't made a restore point before. now what should i do? would making a restore point now and recovering work?
If you haven't made a restore point, it may be that Windows has made one for you automatically. If it hasn't, then system restore cannot be used (until you make a restore point). You can only go back to the time the restore point was made. Hope that helps.
Thx but do u know what to do if I didn’t save the other Restore point
You can only use restore points that you've saved, or the ones that Windows has automatically created.
Could you please helps me to guide the problem on my Windows10 that can not type on searching box on file explorer also on wifi typing on net work security access, basically every typing process on windows.
If you're having problems typing on many different apps then there's most likely a problem with the keyboard. Sometimes a key will get stuck that stops anyone from typing anything out. Try bringing up the Windows 10 onscreen keyboard to see if you can type that way for now. Windows 10's onscreen keyboard will also show you if a key is stuck (a key will be highlighted as if being pressed continuously).
@@EasyPcRepairs thanks for your response, I use on screen keyboard but it can't type on windows search box and wifi security access. By the way on other apps such words and excel also webs I just can type. I think the windows only has the problem.
I updated nvidia drivers and got black screen, so went through the system restore options and chose restore point but I could not choose next option as it would not let me do the final click to restore it was grayed out and said you must enable system protection on this device…how would I do this if I can not access windows at all? The restore point from a few days is there it just won’t let me choose it!
Try going into Windows "Safe Mode", then use system restore from there.
hi, i've been waiting for about 24 hours but mine is stuck at "system restore is complete". should i force shutdown? i'm afraid that there will be problems if i turn it off. thank you.
If there are no other options then you'll have to force shutdown. It's unlikely to cause a problem.
Thanks man
No problem
Will this help when local disk d disappeared? Can’t even find it on disk manager
It sounds like the disk itself might be having a problem. Check your BIOS to see if it appears there. If it doesn't, the problem is the disk drive itself, or perhaps a cable leading to it.
Dear,
Thanks in Advance,
My system has been affected by .Ufwj Ransomeware Virus, then unknowingly i formatted and reinstalled Windows 10 ,
How can i restore that files as it is , Just 25 days before it happened
is this possible ? , If Possible please guide me how to restore
Please
Please help me. I reset my laptop by choosing the "keep my files" option. After resetting, some apps like Adobe Photoshop wasn't there anymore (it was there when I bought the laptop). Is there any way to get them back?
If you run a laptop factory reset, this will bring back everything you had on your laptop when it was new. The problem is that this will also delete all of the files, folders, settings and apps that you have created yourself, but Photoshop will be back on your laptop along with any other apps that your laptop had originally.
my computer suddenly not working properly and my files, apps and wallpaper on desktop are missing what should i do
Will this work on deleted personal youtube accounts since i accidentally deleted it when I was trying to convert it to brand account.
System Restore won't work on deleted TH-cam accounts as the deletion will have happened on the TH-cam server and not just your computer.
Is that how you can get back everything that used to be on your PC?
Excellent video, problem I'm having is that I've changed my username and want let me restore windows , can you advise ? can't open windows at all ,
