XP Pro: Restore Points Dissapeared

[Guest ralphs]

An update to a piece of software (TorButton) caused problems. I did a

restore to get back the old version.

 

When I selected restore it only had ONE restore point and it was from today.

Normally it has three. I doubt that it was deleted due to disk space. There

is plenty of free disk space.

 

Disk space on C:

27,635,408,896 46% Available 59,945,836,544 Total

 

Is there some way (registry setting? tool setting?) that I can get a Yes/No

message box when deletion of a restore point is requested?

 

Anyone know what might trigger deleting restore points?

Anti-virus, anti-spyware and firewalls. Not all just some.
