Hi to all!

I want to start using Windows 7 System Restore before I install games, in a way to try to help prevent possible "garbage" left with the future uninstallations of those said games, and I would like to hear the experiences of other forum members with this kind of operations.

From what I've seen so far, it seems a relatively easy process. Any comments/warnings on this?
