Sometime System restore points are deleted. For eg. Running out of disk space, upgrading your operating system, Disk cleanup....

See here for more details.

Why do you need to take it back to then? If you tell us the problem your having maybe we can all put are heads together and fix it without the need to use system restore, which is a sledge hammer to crack a nut at the best of times.

Outlook Exprees won't keep my passwords, I got in touch with Microsoft last year and this is what we did to sort the problem out.
