    What about the deletion of older Restore points, will they be deleted automatically ?

      Windows automatically deletes older restore points when the available space given for restore points is full to make room for new ones.

    Something may have changed by 21H2. For Method 2, for Pro, 'Scan' seems to be under 'Microsoft Defender Anti-Virus' not 'Windows Defender Anti-Virus'. However I can find no created restore points after turning this on, and waiting a day. For Home I can also find no created restore points for that method after a day. I am investigating 'fast boot' as a possible cause. Any other ideas?

      Open Task Scheduler and go to Task Scheduler Library > Microsoft > Windows > Windows Defender. At the right pane see the time(s) of Windows Defender Scheduled Scan and Cleanup and leave your computer ΟΝ during those hours.

    I set my system to restore once a week so I then used weekly instead of daily at the add arguments. Is this correct?
