"Does this sound like the System Restore feature that has long been part of Windows? That's because it's built on the same technology. In this case, the point-in-time restore option takes snapshots of Windows at different points. If Windows glitches, then the feature can automatically restore it to any of those previous points in time. Using this method, you can not only recover Windows and all the installed applications and customized settings, but also any personal files stored on the user's PC."
"Have you ever encountered an unrecoverable problem with Windows that prevented it from running properly? These system glitches can be frustrating, especially for IT and help desk professionals who must try to resolve them for their users. Now, Microsoft has revealed two new tools that promise to rebuild a misbehaving Windows PC at any organization with the necessary environment. The second feature is cloud rebuild. If Windows can't be rebuilt or recovered using any other method, then your only choice may be to reinstall it from scratch."
Microsoft announced two recovery tools for Windows: point-in-time restore and cloud rebuild. Point-in-time restore uses System Restore technology to take snapshots of Windows and can roll a PC back to earlier points, restoring Windows, installed applications, customized settings, and personal files. The feature aims to fix update issues, driver conflicts, and configuration errors and will appear in the next Windows Insider build for testing. Cloud rebuild provides a cloud-based reinstall when recovery fails and lets IT administrators steer reinstalls across an organization. Both tools will be accessible through Microsoft Intune in early 2026.
