Where Have All Restore Points Gone...Long Time Passing  

Win 10 Version: 1909 (OS Build 18363.657) with all currently available updates.

One of the many nagging problems with my venture/upgrade? to Windows 10 includes the following...

Restore Pioints disappear within a day of their creation. I have duplicated this problem on numersous occasions. This was NEVER a problem on Win 7!

From my perspective, this is a problem within the Win 10 OS, and not any of my 3rd-party softwares (as some have suggested). I stongly suspect that this is tied to the (broken Win 10)) patch that limits (to ninety days) how long RPs are kept.

I wonder how many of you out there have experienced the same problem? Ad if so, have you found a work-around or solution? I certainly would be most thankful for anyone's getting back to me with a solution. I am very reluctant to do a full image backup to achieve this function.

This was a reliable function on Win 7...Gave the user the ability to recover from either a user-brought, or Windows-brought 'blivit' back to a more stable Windows environment.

Where have all Restore Points gone?... Gone to graveyards everywhere... Oh when will they ever learn?

Ms has to delete restore points on major updates as they are out of date and could brick the pc if used

As a member, I have been through the littany of earlier posts on the topic...and found none to be helpful. All simply report the same problem.

This is a Windows 10 BUG, and needs to be corrected!

Maybe the proper solution is to (permanently) return to Win 7- Better the devil you (I) know!

If Microsoft is putting their collective head in the sand viz. this problem, then they can POUND SAND.

This was a CRITICAL function that many relied upon to get them out of trouble.

I WILL NOT accept the use of full image backups as a solution/work-around!

As a veteran software analyst, I am convinced that this problem should be trapped easily (in the lab) with a bit of diagnostic logic. Why/how are RPs being incorrectly deleted prematurely?

'nuff said for now...

I can live with their removal for major updates. I, however, cannot live with RPs disappearing in LESS THAN A DAY1 !! I contend that there is something significantly afoul in Denmark!
