CS>Of course.  But you may have to take ownership of the folder first as
CS>it normally belongs to the system.  I don't use system restore on my
CS>machines at home since I make frequent backups with Acronis.  Those
CS>folders are created by the system whether or not restore is on but in
CS>my case they're empty.

How do I  have a look?

CS>As I pointed out to Jeff, if ever you have malware or a virus that you
CS>cleaned from the system, it's possible for the bad stuff to remain
CS>compressed within a system restore point that was made before the
CS>cleaning took place.   The only way to get rid of it is to turn system
CS>restore off, reboot, and turn it back on again.  That removes all
CS>previous restore points.

CS>Regards.
