Increase the snapshot delay while restoring the system(for Windows XP)

By Sunday, August 01, 2010 No comments
          After boot up Windows generates restore points at regular intervals, the so-called snapshots. This slows down
the system for a longer period.
          There is a setting in the registry with which you can defi ne the idle time of the system up to the starting of the
snapshot job. For this, select ‘Run’ in the start menu. Then, open the Registry editor by calling ‘regedit’, followed by clicking ‘OK’ and thereafter the ‘HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\SystemRestore’ key. Subsequently, create the ‘ThawInterval’ entry by
following the ‘Edit | New | DWORD value’ path; double click and enter the waiting time in seconds for the ‘Value’. However, the default value is ‘900’, i.e. 15 minutes. Set the value, for instance, to ‘1800’ for double the time, i.e. 30 minutes.
         You do not need the protection function, deactivate the system recovery option. For this, open ‘Program            | Accessories | System tools | System restore’ in the start menu, then left click on ‘System restore settings’ and put a check mark in front of the ‘Turn off System Restore on all drives’ option in the dialogue box.
