Move System Restore

**malmal** · January 20, 2008

I have a computer with C: drive being a 20 Gb separate drive and storage F: 250 Gb drive.

Is it possible to direct System Restore files to the 250 Gb drive? 12% of 250 Gb gives you lots more restore point room.

Thanks

system restore will not let you create restore points for one drive on another drive.

You can only adjust the amount of space used on each drive or turn it off completly

open system properties in control panel click on system restore then the drive you want to change then

settings.

Bummer. So SR wont save the restore file to another drive. But is there a hack that would make this possible?

Just playing around , trying a few things.
