[CCleaner Keeps Deleting My System Restore Point]

Free disk space is not really the issue, it's how much space is free in the allocated system restore amount, but as the default is 12% of drive space, and NTDS compresses sys restore data, it's unlikely to be an issue either, but is worth checking.

 

Restore points are supposed to be kept for 90 days (surprisingly I only have 16 days saved with 2 gb of restore space - do they take up that much space?). Are all restore points being deleted or just a selection?

 

Sys restore points are deleted if you run out of disk space on the system drive or on any one of the available non-system drives, which means that if you have a multiple-partition computer with a drive that has almost no free space, this drive may cause System Restore to stop responding all across the system and to delete restore points. There are other reasons, running disk cleanup with the right (or wrong) settings, and general space issues which haven't been reported here.

 

If CC reg cleaner removes restore points, which option in reg cleaner does this, or seems to do this?

 

 

I have 2 350 gb hard drives in my computer. Over 33 gigs is being allocated for system restore. Disk space is not the issue here at all.

 

It deletes all points except the last one made. It only saves one and I have no idea what option does this that's why I'm here asking for help. It doesn't "seem" to do this...it "does" do this and reading this post you can see it's not only happening to me.

CCleaner has never touched any restore point on the 3 XP systems I have even when running the registry cleaner.

 

What other applications do you have on your system?

 

 

I have Avast anitivirus and Zonealarm firewall but I ONLY lose the restore points when running CCleaner and now I see by another post that I'm not the only one that this happens to.

CCleaner does not delete restore points, even the developer has went on record and stated it doesn't touch them. If you're running low on disk space that can be a cause, or some other issue.

 

 

CCleaner does indeed delete restore points. It does it all the time. I have a 700 gb hard drive with over 600 gigs free. Not even close to low disk space.

 

It deletes them when I run the registry integrity option.

Can you give the version of ccleaner used, and also which operating system you use.

 

CCleaner is not set up to touch restore points.

 

 

 

CCleaner version 2.15.815 running Windows XP SP3.

Whenever I run CCleaner it deletes all my Windows system restore points.

 

What do I need to do to CCleaner to get it to stop doing that?

 

Thank You.
