Bonjour,
I am running a bunch of Windows 10 and 11 in an AD domain with Windows Server 2016.
I would like to create restore points on my domain computers but could not find a straight forward way to do that so far.
I see some websites stating it is possible through a GPO which involves Windows Defender Scan as described bellow:
This policy setting allows you to create a system restore point on the computer on a daily basis prior to cleaning.
We do not use Windows defender and it is disabled because we use a commercial antivirus instead. This is definitely non-applicable to me. What can I do?
