Acer Aspire 7741Z
Win 7 Home Premium. SP1.
4 GB ram memeory ( 3.68 usable ).
This tutorial says :
System Protection - Change Disk Space Usage
By default, Windows 7 will allocate 10% of your total C: drive/partition size to be used to store system restore points in this allocated disk space. This allocated space will no longer be available as free space.
This will show you how to adjust the maximum disk space used for system protection in Windows 7.
My computer was bought May 25th this year. I have not touched the storage size limit.
Just found out the size limit is set at 2%.
No problem so far. Restore points go as far back as May 25th.
Apparently 2 % is enough. Still, just wonder if it is a tad low ?
