[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1561518, member: 46727"] Mac OS X does not have an internal System Restore function similar to Windows. It's not necessary because if you keep your external drive attached and allow Time Machine to make its backups, you'll be able to restore from any point in time that the backups were made. Keep in mind that Windows System Restore does not restore deleted files, folders, or programs. It can only restore changes that were made to the system and registry. While that might help in some situations, Time Machine can restore in all situations... (deletions, mistakes, program errors, etc.) [/QUOTE]
