Hi guys,
do you know if in Windows 8 the system restore is enabled by default? Can this be disabled?

Thanks

Broken google? ? 😯

System Restore must be enabled on every drive on which you use it, and you need around 300MB of disk space. It's enabled by default, however, so here's how to use System Restore in Windows 8. (See also Windows 8 the complete guide.)

Enable/Disable

There is some confusion on the name of the feature, it is either System Restore or System Protection

As a side note, some features connected more generally with shadow copies and snapshots were removed (when compared to Windows 7) becoming "File History" see
