I totally agree, I'd also like to point out to @Dave-H that the recently joined user started to spawn multiple topics with dubious advice and questionable software.

what is the questionable software ?)

perhaps you have simply never heard of such utilities, but this does not mean that it is doubtful )

and I went to the forum to leave a comment about the extended kernel, which does not work

You didn’t check it, but I checked it

So I decided to throw up a couple of topics on an almost dead forum and see how people react

I had no malicious intent whatsoever

 

but the fact that you personally don’t like the country of the manufacturer of whatever software is your own problem and keep your opinion to yourself, this is not a political forum

You just don't understand how a restore point works.

Previously, after recovery, my computer worked for a maximum of 20 days, after which it began to become very slow and I had to reinstall win, so I abandoned the recovery completely

Why would you join a "dead forum"?

I can tell the same yo you, keep your opinion to yourself. This is no way to start a new membership with insults towards the forum and the members.

@lll888, did you study the capitalisation of words?

Except that this advice is harmful. I do computer repair and over the years have been able to recover a large number of systems using restore points. And on my computers system recovery has saved the system from reinstallation several times. 

Agree with you, one can also use system restoring in case of updates gone wrong.

It's not true! MSFN doesn't host non-working projects. Don't spread falsehoods.

I've been using it for many years, along with other notable members.

+1, the kernel works for me too, experienced some audio issues in only one game.

It means that your OS has accumulated a lot of problems that are causing the slowdown. Because on all computers where I have done a restore, I have not noticed any change in performance after the restore. For example, my main computer I'm writing from now has been restored twice, first in 2017, when my network failed due to a conflict between antivirus and firewall, and second time in 2020, due to a program that installed an incompatible driver. But the OS still works fine today, no problems or bugs. Yes, restore points do not give a 100% guarantee that there will be no problems at all, or it happens that restoring from a point fails, but in 75% of cases the OS will be restored to the state at the time the point was created.

Incidentally, the recent worldwide Windows crash could well have been quickly resolved if Win 10 had Recovery Points enabled.

To be honest, I'm not at all surprised that you have problems with Windows operating systems after reading your posts here on MSFN.

the recent failure did not affect those who disabled updates and update manually as needed

It only effected companies who use the CrowdStrike middleware, the data files that triggered the crash in the CrowdStrike driver were not pushed from the public Windows Update.

It probably means you are doing something wrong with your computer or there was some specific rare issue. Disabling system restore is bad idea in most cases, but there might be of course some specific usage exception. Reinstalling the system is faster only for people who don't use many specific custom settings and many specific software with many specific custom settings, system drive encryption etc etc. The system I'm writing from now has been installed 9 years ago and it still works perfectly. During that time I've used system restore maybe 2-3x for example when there was problem with some new driver and system failure to boot. During that time I also fully replaced the hardware and migrated the OS from old PC to new one by cloning the encrypted system drive. It needed some fixes, drivers reinstall etc, but it was still done in maybe 2 days. If I need to reinstall the whole system from scratch and reinstall all the software and settings I have here, I need at least 2 weeks for that. But of course for people who use mostly default settings and few application the reinstall would be faster.
