Publisher's Description: |
Fixed a possible issue that may occur if Windows 8 is upgraded to Windows 8.1. There is a possibility that a Registry setting that the program sets on Windows 8/8.1 to fix System Restore to make it function like it did in past versions of Windows was undone during the upgrade of Windows 8 to 8.1. There is a check for this now in the program and if it detects the change was undone, the program re-applies it. Thank Microsoft for this issue.
A public beta version is being distributed. If you want to test it for me, you can download it here. You can view the changes here. If you read through the changes you can see that I’ve worked on quite a bit of changes and fixes. It’s not ready for distribution but if you are having issues with the latest public version I suggest you download the beta version and see if the fixes contained in it fix the issues you’re having.
NOTICE: On April 8th, 2014 I am officially pulling support for Windows XP from Restore Point Creator. April 8th, 2014 is when Microsoft pulls support for Windows XP and I will too. All code that turns off functionality for Windows XP will be removed and a notice at launch of the program will notify users that the program no longer supports Windows XP and the program will automatically close. Users have had twelve years to upgrade to a newer version of Windows, time to put XP in the ground.
Guaranteed to contain absolutely NO spyware! The “Check For Updates” routine sends only two pieces of data to my web site; a program code (in the case of this program it is “restorepointcreator”) and the program’s major and minor version numbers (1.5, 1.6, etc.). That’s it! Absolutely no personal information is sent to my web site when checking for updates.

Ever found that creating Restore Points in Windows is a bit tedious? Click this, click that, go there, click another thing, and then finally you’re at where you need to be to create a Restore Point. There’s got to be an easier way to do all of that. Right? Well, now there is.
Introducing Restore Point Creator, written by Me.
Create and manage System Restore Points quickly and easily, all from a free simple program. No more drilling through multiple menus in Windows just to create a System Restore Point, now all you have to do is run this program and that’s it. Follow the simple program layout and you have your System Restore Point created in no time at all.
Plus, for users of Windows 7 and Windows 8, creating System Restore Points is even quicker and easier with this program. Just pin this program to the Taskbar and you have the ability to quickly create System Restore Points using one of the two pinned Tasks (“Create System Checkpoint” and “Create Custom Named”) that the program creates. It’s that simple.
Create System Checkpoint – Creates a System Restore Point with the name of “System Checkpoint made by System Restore Point Creator”
Create Custom Named – Asks you what you want your System Restore Point to be named and then creates one based upon what you inputted.
Download it for free here. Full Source Code is available for review upon request.
Version 1.7 Build 3 is now available for download and updating through the program. All updates to the program can be checked for and downloaded by clicking on the “Check for Updates” button in the program. A full changelog can be found here.

If you like this program, feel free to donate. Or feel free not to donate. It doesn’t matter to me. Donations to use this program will never be required to use this program. It is and always will be a free program. But, if you do feel that you want to donate it would be a nice gesture of appreciation for the program.
