Free app creates System Restore points with a single click


Creating system restore points in Windows XP requires far too many mouse clicks. The process has been greatly simplified in Windows Vista and Windows 7, and it's just about as simple as it can get. Just about.

Single Click Restore Point does what its name implies. Launch the executable, wait a few moments, and a confirmation window appears to let you know that your point has been created. My apologies for the nondescript screenshot, but there's really nothing to see apart from the notification.

The program is less than half a meg in size and totally portable, so it's handy app to keep on your trusty USB flash drive if you do any repair work.

SCRP's only downside is that you can't enter a description for your new point. Then again, if you could do that it wouldn't be "single click." Although most of us are probably using the default double-click in Windows, so technically it's still not really a single click. But it is dead simple.

You can find the download on both the author's site and Softpedia.

It doesn't seem logically possible, since if the first one was actually the world's hardest, how could another one come along and share the moniker? It made me doubt the name in the first place. That is, until I tried the game. The mechanics of the game are very simple. You are a small red square, ...
