You can then recover back to that point if you want to reverse subsequent changes made to your system. ✎ The first system recovery point, a snapshot of the entire image, is automatically created the first time you perform a backup.

Creating recovery points
When you back up modifications since your last backup, you are
creating system recovery points. This allows you to save a
snapshot of your hard drive at a specific point in time. You can
then recover back to that point if you want to reverse subsequent
changes made to your system.
✎
The first system recovery point, a snapshot of the entire image,
is automatically created the first time you perform a backup.
Subsequent recovery points make a copy of changes made after
that time.
HP recommends that you create recovery points at the following
times:
■
Before you add or extensively modify software or hardware
■
Periodically, whenever the system is performing optimally
✎
Recovering to an earlier recovery point does not affect data
files or e-mails created since that recovery point.
