Restore point takes your device back to an earlier point in time. Restore points are auto-generated when you install a new application or driver, and also you can create a restore point manually. Restoring won’t affect your personal files, but it will remove applications, drivers, and updates installed after the restore point was made.
Note: It will take some time to restore system from a restore point, so please make sure that the AC adapter is connected during the restore process. Also, please do not force to shut down to prevent any issue.
