Windows 11's Secret 50GB SSD Killer: Point-in-Time Restore - tech
(hx) 12:38 PM CEST - Jul,13 2026 - Post a comment / read (1)
Windows 11's new Point-in-Time Restore feature creates full system snapshots every ~72 hours for quick rollback after bad updates or issues.

It uses Volume Shadow Copy Service and can write up to 50GB per backup to your SSD, even if older System Restore is disabled.

This heavy write activity wears out SSDs faster due to limited write cycles, especially on smaller drives.

It's handy for fast recovery (keeps last 72 hours) but limited controls on Pro editions make it inefficient for many users. On high-end SSDs it's less concerning, but frequent large writes still impact longevity and performance.
