Hope this helps,

I will try that way later mate thank you. Just another question in the triggers window I have 2 triggers to run at start up and they are both at the same time 10am. Should I have 2 or 1?

You're welcome Holly.

It really just depends on if you wanted one created for each trigger or just one of the triggers. If just one, then you can just delete the other trigger. Please let us know how it went.

Thanks for this tutorial!
I noticed it's doing this automatically sometimes, and my computer will have a little delay on opening different types of Software (Windows Update took 5 sec for me to open), is it usual that the performance will slow a liiiiittle bit down while Windows is creating a restore point?

You should let Windows create Restore points then do your other tasks.

Just let it finish Restore points and System Images before doing added tasks a lot less likely that an error will occur in the Image/Restore point.

Hello FredeGail,

Depending on how powerful your system is, it wouldn't be unusual to notice a bit of a performance drop while a restore point is being created.

It's probably a refer to my memory is DDR2, due to my board doesn't support the new technology, DDR3.
- Which I'm defiantly annoyed about

I'm making image backups of the system, and saving it on the D:/ drive (non-windows-disk).

Defiantly, but it's such a small things as.. let's say.. opening Windows Update. But it's a no problem

I want to automatically create a restore point at 6 pm everyday. I managed to do it via help from this forum about 18 months ago. However my laptop was stolen last week and I have forgotten what I did - my new laptop is running Windows 7 Home Premium. Can someone please advise on what is now regarded as the easiest way to schedule the daily back up?
