Geekers - Do you know what a system restore is? System Restore is one of the built-in Windows features or tools that allows users to restore the Windows system to a previous state. The point is this, when you make changes to your windows system, and you find a problem or even an error, then you can return your windows to conditions like yesterday or to an earlier date (before you made the change).
For some people, this system restore is of course very important. However, the existence of this system restore will take up quite a lot of your hard drive space. The size can be giga-giga bytes. And for those whose hard drive is full, of course this system restore will be a little annoying because it takes up a lot of hard disk space. Even system restore on my laptop was looking for 20GB once, and of course that's not a meager size. If used to store photos, maybe it can be used to store thousands of photos.
