Question
How do I restore a windows 95 computer to a previous date?
If you can restore it how far back can you go back. The computer has not been used much since that date.
Is there a way to get pictures off the computer that have been deleted and the recycle box has been emptied.
the computer has a windows 95 operating system
Thanks,
Mike

Answer
Hi Mike,

Unfortunately, Win. 95 does not really have a system restore feature like more current systems.  Even if it did, a system restore function does not restore deleted files.  It only restores system files  For file recovery, you would have to have used a backup software.

There may, however, be some hope in recovering deleted files.  You may want to give this free program a try:

I hope this helps!
