Calibre Deleted PC Restore Points

I installed Calibre64 today. I was dismayed to find that the Calibre64 restore point is the only one remaining. I usually keep 3 or 4. Now, if something goes wrong, I have NO restore points to fall back on. I'm hoping that Calibre made the restore point BEFORE doing the install. Must be, right?

That's Windows, not Calibre.

@Barry G - You probably need to allocate more disk space to System Restore. Windows deletes old restore points to make room for new ones. See ==>> How to use System Restore on Windows 10

Because of a power surge I had to do dozens of program reinstalls this week. Only Calibre deleted existing restore points.

System restore points are handled by Microsoft Windows.

This may have changed, but my understanding is that restore points are automatically deleted 90 days after creation or if you run low on disk space.
