System Restore - Resources Monitored

Resources Monitored

The following resources are backed up:

  • Registry
  • Files in the Windows File Protection (Dllcache) folder (under Windows XP). On Windows Vista and later versions, all system file types are monitored on all paths on a volume.
  • 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.
