"if something goes wrong you'll have to re-install anyway."
This is probably one of those things where experiences will vary but for me most of the time on my old win7 laptop when a bad install broke stuff system recovery worked fantastically.
- yellowapple 12y agoSystem Restore's been a toss-up for me. Sometimes it's worked wonderfully. Other times, it makes the problem worse. Still other times, it just doesn't help, or something caused the restore points to be nuked (sometimes that something is the user him/herself). I've been experimenting with NixOS lately, which has some very nice features along the lines of System Restore done right; being able to roll back any change to system configuration is pretty awesome.
