System Volume Information

[Hudson's Pops]

B) I had a problem with a program download. I deleted it, but still had problems. I discovered that I the offending file had been placed in my System Volume Information file. I had to get instructions from the MS website to open the SVI file. Open opening, I discovered there were about forty restore volumes. The offending file had been placed in at least two or three of the restore volumes.

Can I delete these volumes and create just one new restore point? Also, is there a search thread I can use to find if the offending file remains in my PC?

Thanks for the help!

lets start

1) go folder option and uncheck simple sharing

2) right click andChange the permission through Security option

3) add Ur A/c as Full control

4) del the specified file if it has some problem go for (5)

5) Boot in Safe Mode and Manually delete the file

usually windows creates a restore point before any program installation. just restore.

I have already deleted the offending file from two of the Restore volumes in SVI. I would like to know if it is OK to delete all of restore volumes (about 40) that are in the SVI file. It would free up a lot of space. I would be rid of the offending file for sure. Then I would hopefully have just one new restore point to start from.

Thanks

just find the most recent one and delete the others. you will be getting rid of all the restore points prior to the last one.
