accessing the _Restore folder??

[ziggenpuss]

Hey all!

I know that I have been able to get into the _Restore folder in Windows XP before and delete the contents, but can't remember how? It is zapping up HDD space... can any one tell me how to access the contents of this folder? Any help is greatly appreciated!

I believe the folder you are looking for is here: C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\Restore

you can also clean it up by going to: C: - properties - disk cleanup - more options and then hit the lowest button that says cleanup then it deletes everything but the last restore point.

you can also lower the amount of disk space or even disable system restore by going to: my computer - properties - system restore here you can adjust the disk space you want to use per disk (watch out if you turn of disk restore on a disk you wont be able to restore anything on that disk even though you have another disk with disk restore on).
