Siders77 Posted January 29, 2006 Report Share Posted January 29, 2006 Not really, you can always undo the last restore you did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Siders77 Posted January 29, 2006 Report Share Posted January 29, 2006 All of the programs and stuff you want to keep. If you have 2 HDD's then copy the files you want onto your second drive. Or just put them on a DVD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomm Posted January 29, 2006 Report Share Posted January 29, 2006 System restore won't delete any of your files or folders or anything. It does remove programs, but like people have said you can just revert anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
