Πολλοί χρήστες των Windows θεωρούν ότι η επαναφορά (System Restore) και η αποκατάσταση συστήματος (System Recovery) είναι το ίδιο πράγμα, επειδή και οι two functions involve retrieving files from hard disk, registry, system memory or other storage media.
In addition, they are both designed to fix problems and errors in your computer. In reality, however, the two functions are different from each other. If you are not sure about the difference between System Restore and System Recovery below we will see the functions in detail.
What does System Restore do?
System Restore is a default Windows feature designed to protect and repair computer software. System Restore works by saving a snapshot of certain Windows system and registry files as restore points. So when an installation failure or data corruption occurs, System Restore can restore it system to a previous correct operating state without having to reinstall the operating system.
Fixes Windows issues by restoring files and settings saved to restore point.
How to enable system restore
For many users, System Restore Protection is enabled by defaultchoice για την κύρια μονάδα του συστήματος (C:) και όχι για όλους τους δίσκους του υπολογιστή. Για άλλους πάλι, η Επαναφορά Συστήματος δεν είναι ενεργοποιημένη καθόλου. Αυτό μπορεί να σχετίζεται με το αν τα Windows εγκαταστάθηκαν με άμεσα από το ISO με format του σκληρού (fresh install) ή αναβαθμίστηκαν από παλαιότερη version, how much space is available on your drive, what kind of drives you have, or anything else.
To enable it or check if it is enabled, open System and see the Properties tab.
You can create a restore point at any time, even though Windows automatically generates them once a week. They also create a restore point before any major system changes, such as installing an update.
Create a system restore point
Look for Create a restore point from the taskbar and select it from the list of search results. Alternatively press the two Win + R keys together to open the RUN. Type systempropertiesprotection and press enter.
On the System Protection tab in System Properties, select Create.
The 'System Protection' tab in 'System Properties'
Enter a description of the restore point, then select Create> OK.
What does System Recovery do?
System Restore is a technique by which you can reset the operating system to its factory default settings as specified by the manufacturer.
This option is used to repair any damage to your operating system. You can repair your files and the corrupted system through the system recovery options.
The menu System recovery options περιέχει διάφορα εργαλεία, όπως την Επισκευή εκκίνησης (Startups Repair), Επαναφορά συστήματος (System Restore), Ανάκτηση εικόνας συστήματος (System Image recovery), τα οποία μπορούν να χρησιμοποιηθούν για την επιδιόρθωση ή την αποκατάσταση ενός κατεστραμμένου λειτουργικού συστήματος. Όλα αυτά τα εργαλεία βρίσκονται στον σκληρό δίσκο του υπολογιστή σας και συγκεκριμένα στο δίσκο εγκατάστασης των Windows. Από τα Windows 8 και μετά, οι επιλογές αποκατάστασης συστήματος αντικαταστάθηκαν από τις Επιλογές για προχωρημένους (Advanced Options).
System Restore Options
System Restore does not affect your personal files on the computer, but System Recovery erases all your data (personal and installed software). System Recovery will only install the features that were installed by the computer manufacturer. After restoring the system, your system will look new as it was when you purchased it.
Types of system recovery
System recovery can be done in two ways. By the method of recovery from a certain partition on the disk or from a DVD - USB installation. If you want to proceed with some of the recovery options you can read more information from Microsoft official website.
It should be noted here that your computer can usually have two types of system recovery.
System recovery: This option resets the system disk (usually C :), reinstalls the original operating system, and reinstalls all the original hardware and software drivers.
Factory reset: This option can quickly reset Windows to the factory default settings. It's faster and more convenient than reinstalling Windows from scratch via a DVD-USB, or using your manufacturer's recovery partition.
The option will delete all your data.
System Restore or System Recovery
System restore is an easy and short process. System recovery is a more difficult and lengthy process. It takes hours to restore a system and sometimes even days to restore a system.
Despite the difficulty, system recovery will remove all the bad files and viruses from your system, something that System restore, which simply restores your old files, cannot do. System Restore deletes only data that was installed after the system restore point, while System Restore deletes your registry and hard drive. Clean jobs…
