Vista One-click Restore Point Vista creates restore points at various times: daily, usually at Noon, and on bootup, as well as when some apps are installed, etc.
But you may want to make one before an important or experimental change.
Create a new shortcut on the desktop (right-click, New) and enter:
%windir%\system32\rundll32.exe /d srrstr.dll,ExecuteScheduledSPPCreation
Customize the icon if you choose since the generic icon for rundll32 will be used by default.
Note that there will be no notification that the point has been created, but you will see it in System Properties Protection.
