Lee Wittington, one of the guys at the Windows Club, produced a tool that provides frankly better management of the Windows 7 System Restore function than the native Control Panel user interface.
Leveraging existing Windows APIs, the System Restore Manager v2.0 tool provides a graphical way of:
- Creating Restore Points
- Deleting individual Restore Points
- Restoring the system to a Restore Point
- Writing Restore Points to a different drive
- Changing the max space used for Restore Points
- Changing the frequency of restore point snapshots
- Changing the length of time a restore point is kept
