    After installing Windows and disabling System Restore, after a while it re-enables itself?

    How can I permanently disable this useless piece of garbage that never worked in restoring anything? System images FTW

    wrong, that's only when you first install Windows, after you activate it, it gets enabled.

    Then even after disabling it, running programs like O&O ShutUp10 reenables it again.

    I wanna disable this POS feature for good.

    There's a policy at admin templates\system\system restore\Turn Off System Restore. Probably enabling it will get things done for you.
