[Using System Restore]

Every now and then we add so much in the way of different applications, pull
down large downloads from the net with who knows what  along for the trip
and gather spyware that our machines get so cluttered up it just won't work
as it should any longer. One of the things we can do to fix this or to
simply undo something we did recently that is now causing the PC or laptop
bother is a "System Restore". Let's now look at the steps involved in
restoring your Windows 7 or 8 computer to an earlier more satisfactory
working order;

1. We start by closing everything we have open and opening the "Start Menu".

2. In the Start menu "Search box" we type in the words, System Restore and
wait for system restore to show up in the search results and if you use a
screen reader it should announce "System Restore".
3. Press enter and the system restore dialogue box will now open up and will
contain the following items;
*. Is this process reversible link?.
*. Next> button.
*. Cancel button.
Notes: Use the tab key if you are using the keyboard to move to any of the
above items.
5. Press the "Spacebar" on the Next button and wait for it to open up. A new
dialogue box opens up and it contains the following items;
*. List of restore points currently available.
*. Scan for affected programs button.
*. <Back button.
*. Next> button.
*. Cancel button.
*. How do I choose a restore point.
*. Show more restore points, checkbox not checked.
Notes: Again use the tab key to move to any of the above. 
6. When this current dialogue box opened up first it landed me straight into
the list of current  restore points available to me. The amount of current
restores available can vary from computer to computer, some may have only
one or two while other might have 8 or 10 points to choose from. In addition
to this list we also have a checkbox option which when checked allows us to
pull in more restore points which are older and can go back over a few
months or more.
7. Use the "Spacebar" to check the option of Show more restore points and
then tab over again into your list. Now you will notice that using your
arrow keys to move through this list you have more restorations available
should you wish to use one of them.

8. Take time deciding on which restore point you feel is right for you and
when you have made your decision using your arrow keys, tab over to the
"Next> button followed by Spacebar to move on to the next screen.
9. When the next and final screen comes up you will read or be told by your
screen reader that your computer will be restored to the state it was in at
the date and time it shows and which you picked out earlier. Tab over to the
"Finish button" and press the spacebar to complete the initiation of the
system restore.
Notes: You may get one more warning message after hitting spacebar on the
Finish button that once started the action you have begun can't be stopped
or undone, do you wish to continue, "Yes Or No", tab to Yes and press the
spacebar.

Notes: Depending on how much stuff you have on your computer will in many
ways determine how long it will take to restore so be patient during the
restoration process and (Do Not Turn Off Your Computer) during a system
restore
Use your own judgment in  deciding if you can do a system restore with
confidence as it can make a lot of things happen if you get it wrong.
