If you mean how can you look at individual files or folders that are
within the restore point, you can't, as they are compressed.  You
might be able to open the file with something like EditPad but it
would appear garbled.  When you restore, everything that was stored in
that particular point gets restored - you don't have a choice of
selecting files or folders.  That's best left to something like True
Image or Ghost.
