Windows System Restore points

Hi, would it be possible for ccleaner to delete Windows system restore points?

Cheers Tony

Why would you want this when Windows does it from time to time anyway. If you are doing a lot of install/uninstalls you would be better served to reload Windows from time to time. You will also find that manually cleaning the Registry-VERY carefully-will be of benefit.

Just a thought-I always set a Restore point prior to testing a new program for up to 14 days. I also log what I did in the meantime if I changed something (no new install/unstall operations).

You can delete the most recent restore points by going to

My Computer > right click on your HDD e.g. (C:) > Properties > Disk Cleanup > click on the tab More Options > under System Restore click Cleanup :)

Why would I want this - deleting unused files is part of the function of ccleaner

I do use the system restore function, but usually I have to manually delete them, whereas it would be good if ccleaner could do it for me
