If you have ever restored your system in previous version of Windows, you may have faced the troubles of the situation. Because, there were no ways to tell you about which applications or drivers might take effect. However, you can know about it after restoring the system.
Now the rock and roll Windows 7 is something different that lets you handle your situations easily and safely. All you have to do is, just right click Computer, select Properties, and then got to System protection.

Now go to System Restore and click on Next. Now choose the restoration point you would prefer.
Click the New button in order to “Scan for affected programs” and Windows will let you know if any programs and drivers will take effect or not.
