System Restore - Recommended size?
Just wondering what's the minimum and recommended size for system restore to work well? Thanks!

Regularly created restore point has about 600MB, the other depend on the changes, like what was the size of windows updates being installed (like up to 2GB). I have mine set to 4GB, to able to restore the last change.
It really comes down to how many restore points you want to be able have available, and how much disk space you can spare for them. :)

Does one generally need more restore points if one updates things and reboot only when it calls for a reboot?
It's really up to you for how many restore points you would like to have on hand to be safe.
I'd say to at least keep 5 on hand if you have the available space. In addition, always create a new restore point before doing anything that may cause issues to be safe.
Good points, does the restore point have to be on the same drive or can it be on other drives as well since it seems like ASUS shipped with the C: drive for the OS mainly...
System restore just plain doesn't work well. You'd be better off making regular backups with Macrium Reflect or similar software.
Restore points are on the same drive - it uses volume shadow copies. This cannot be changed,
There goes that thought since my other drives have 0 data on them so thought I could do it there instead.
