Just to make sure you understand: Software has bugs. Things crash sometimes. Disabling System Restore will keep you from rolling back changes. It is not a good idea to disable it.
Click the Start button, type “restore,” and then click “Create a restore point.” Don’t worry. This doesn’t actually create a restore point; it just opens the dialog where you can get to all the System Restore options.
Click the Configure button below the list of drives:
Now simply click the radio button to disable System Protection. (Note again that this is probably a bad idea).
That should be all you need to do. Now you’ve got system restore disabled. Living on the edge, eh?
