Restore point

How can I create my auto restore points EVERY day? I leave my computer on
almost all the time. I created one last night as my computer was working
just perfectly but noticed that there were no other RP's prior to this, it
frightened me. I would like it to create at least one restore point every
18 hours if possible. Prior to this there were always many days that did
not contain RP's. It always creates one if I run Registry Mechanic.

If the Scheduler service is running, and you leave your computer on, a
restore point will be created daily.

It only creates a RP half of the time.

Hi,

The most common cause of missing restore points is low disk space on ANY
monitored partition/drive. The first step to take would be to determine if
there are any partitions/drive being monitored other than the one Windows is
installed on. If so, stop monitoring of but the Windows partition.

How to disable a monitored drive:
