From: Willard on 31 May 2010 17:25 Lately "System Volume Information" has been appearing on my USB DOS hard drive.. I have turned off the "System Restore" However I would like to completely Remove "System Restore", since I rely on my other duplicate external backup drives for occasional restoration.. How can I do an uninstall of "System Restore"???

I don't think you can "uninstall it". Just turn it off on all drives (although I wouldn't recommend that; why not just let it monitor your system drive as another fallback option).
From: Tim Meddick on 31 May 2010 17:47 You cannot uninstall System Restore, since it is an integral part of the Windows XP operating system. However, you may "Turn off System Restore on all drives" by going to : "Control Panel" :- "System" (same as right-click on "My Computer" and choose "Properties") ....then, click on the "System Restore" tab across the top. On the "System Restore" page, put a "checkmark" in the box labelled : "Turn off System Restore on all drives" ......click on [ok] to save your settings and exit "System Properties". == Cheers, Tim Meddick, Peckham, London. :-) "Willard" <guess(a)msn.invalid> wrote in message news:ubRBPfQALHA.4388(a)TK2MSFTNGP04.phx.gbl... > Lately "System Volume Information" has been appearing on my USB DOS > hard drive.. > I have turned off the "System Restore" > > However I would like to completely Remove "System Restore", since I rely > on my other duplicate external backup drives for occasional restoration.. > > How can I do an uninstall of "System Restore"???

Thanks everyone for the information... I'll just have to be satisfied with "System Restore" turned off...
