How to adjust the space reserved for System Restore files

In Vista, you had to use the command line (with an administrative command prompt) if you wanted to change the amount of space that was set aside for System Protection files. Now there's a GUI setting that makes it much easier.
Click Start | Control Panel
Open System
In the left pane, click System Protection
In the Protection Settings list, click the partition for which you want
to adjust the settings, and click the Configure button
Under "Disk Space Usage," adjust the slider to the percentage of disk
space you want to be used .
Note that by default, System Protection is enabled for the drive on which Windows 7 is installed. You can also turn on System Protection for other partitions. We always leave it on the default system drive only however we do increase the size.
