System Restore - Resources Monitored

Resources Monitored

The following resources are backed up:

  • Registry

  • Local user profile
  • COM+ and WMI Databases
  • IIS Metabase
  • Specific file types monitored

The list of file types and directories to be included or excluded from monitoring by System Restore can be customized on Windows Me and Windows XP by editing %windir%\system32\restore\Filelist.xml.

Famous quotes containing the word resources:

    We live in a time which has created the art of the absurd. It is our art. It contains happenings, Pop art, camp, a theater of the absurd.... Do we have the art because the absurd is the patina of waste...? Or are we face to face with a desperate or most rational effort from the deepest resources of the unconscious of us all to rescue civilization from the pit and plague of its bedding?
    Norman Mailer (b. 1923)
