    Hello all
    I was reading through a post about optimizing your SSD and it suggested disabling system restore. Im fine with that as the only time Ive used it was after downloading a bad driver for my GPU. I wasnt aware of "Driver rollback". My question is are these two in same? if I disable system restore, can I still use driver rollback?

    Independent, you can still do driver rollback without system restore on.

    If you disable system restore, I recommend making system backups.
