The best protection you can have, assuming you’ve taken the ordinary precaution of having antivirus software, is to make occasional backups of
System State, using the Windows Backup utility. Fast, easy, free, and foolproof.
It’s a manual version of the XP System Restore. System Restore sometimes works, but it has become the prime target of malware, and just when you need it, it is disabled.

GOOD INFO THANKS
Better to turn off and then turn back on the System Restore, after you are clean, IMO.
