System Restore - very old entries.

[Purgatory]

Hi Guys
one of my Win 7 PC's (Still operates perfectly) shows a number of very old entries in the system restore list.

These are accompanied by the usual list of recent entries which do disappear when I elect to delete all entries except the most recent one. The older entries remain in the list regardless of the delete all except the last entry function.
This is not a problem - just annoying and I would love to find out how erase these entries. All ideas welcomed.
I would estimate that the date of the offending entries was at the time of the O/S installation

Try disable system restore, restart and enable again. Just guessing here

Thanks GokAy
tried that some time ago, but without success

Ok, try if you can delete with System Restore Explorer | Nic's Blog

Have you moved Restore Points to another partition or drive??

Good Idea GokAh - interestingly the program did not list any of the 'old files'

But then prompted by Layback Bears later input, he may well have a point here. The above program (I think from memory) listed the backups contained in the C directory. HOWEVER -
There may well be backups of the original install on the d drive or e drive disks. I will check this out when I can get to the computer concerned tomorrow.
Thanks guys for your interests and posts.

Another good idea - but unfortunately not the answer!
I will keep investigating, but many thanks for your time and help so far
