You're full of fucking shit, you waffling retard. Anyone who can write as
many technical words as you did and still not know that restoring the system
state is an emergency only measure that does not guarantee a full recovery
of the system to a previous state is a complete bag of wind, you fucking
nauseating wretch.

Give full control to the group named Everyone on the %SystemRoot% drive, you
fucking prancing faerie.

either.

This is a question best suited for a Microsoft Win2K News Group, not an anti

Group.
