    I want to use system restore to restore my PC to an earlier time.

    I have used it several times in the past, but now its gone !

    Are you using Windows 10? I am reading that System Restore is toggled OFF by default in Windows 10. -- TekRevue

    Have you tried typing system restore in the search field?

    Wish to restore my PC to an earlier time, but "System Tools" is no longer on my Programs list.

    What OS are you using? Do a google search on how to find the system tools on that OS and you should get some great advice. It seems every new update or version moves things around .. I don't like change so google has been my friend many times trying to find out where things went. Good luck :)

    I'm using Windows Seven. I tried Windows Ten a couple times before, but returned the computer because it was not intuitive in its operation.

    Does 7 have the Cortana option? If so, you can simply say “hey Cortana” and then after she replies ask for system restore. I believe 8 has it and I know that 10 does also but not sure about 7.
    Bada bing, bada boom.

    If all else fails, simply go to settings and type a search for the system restore. It should lead you right there.
