    Hi,

    Occasionally, I create a restore point on both my desktop and laptop.
    My desktop remains the same as to how I get to it, but my laptop (rarely used) has changed?
    Can the steps be made so it's the same as the desktop?

    Both running Windows 10.

    This is how I get to the create restore point option...

    Desktop
    Right click on "This PC" icon.
    Click on "Properties".
    In the menu on the left side of the screen, click on "Advanced system settings".
    Click on the "System Protection" tab.
    Under Protection Settings, click on "Create" (restore point).

    Laptop
    Right click on "This PC" icon.
    Click on "Properties".
    ** this is where the options change, as compared to desktop **
    A "PC Properties" window opens, the tabs include: "General, Shortcut, Security, Details, Previous Versions".
    There's no "Advanced system settings" option.

    Thank you.
