Added on June 6, 2007, 7:05 pmAs per my experience using Vista ever since it launched, shadow copies don't ussually take up so much space - UNLESS... he has Office Outlook and for whatever reason, backed up his .pst files - which could rack up to multiple GB.

How do you go about changing the % of HDD for shadow copy? I just turned mine off.

I am not sure la. I read about it somewhere that you can go into the system files and then change the amount of HDD space the shadow copies consume. BTW: How do you turn of your shadow copying. I just wanna know how to delete all the system restore points. Thanks in advance.

If I am not wrong, by disabling System Restore shall disable the Shadow Copy as well.

Yes. Disabling system restore will effectively disable shadow copy as well.



You can do that only by using the vssadmin command line tool under an elevated command prompt. It also lets you set the storage allocated for system restore too. Strangely, there is no option for you to change it through the GUI as opposed to in Windows XP.

do u really need 8800GTS to run Vista ultimate...?
i see many 8800 fanatics lately... among my frenz who wah wah bout vista...

Those are boasted talks. You just need a minimal of DirectX 9 capable card like GeForce FX 5200 or AMD ATi's 9550 card to achieve a good performing Aero Glass interface.

The only thing that you should consider at most, is upgrading your RAM amount. 512MB works, but 1GB guarantee that it will work better.

Well... depends on your need. If you are using aps that require high graphic rendering, then by all means, get a 8800. Also... 1GB is good but I just came back from Low Yat... 1 GB ram is just RM 115! So might was well get 2GB.

Shadow COpy only will cosume Maximum of 15 % Hardsik space . ADn will not function if you space not more than 1 GB

Anyone cna turn on/off the shadow copy . just go to your system protection. right there will jhave the setting

If you wan to delete shadow copy hystory. just clean up your C drive shadow hystory
