    :confused On my WinXP/SP2 pc there are restore points listed as far back as April/2007 to the current date (Nov 6). I am sure this takes up quite a lot of disk space and I would like to know how to "delete" all the old restore points and just leave the current Nov. date. Since my pc is running without any probs so far, I'd definitely want to delete all the previous restore points. So how do I go about deleting these? Will it be 'safe' to do so.
    Thanks for all the great support in this forum.

    Turn off system restore, reboot, turn it back on. I believe this removes the old restore points.
