Hi!
Is there any way how to create Windows XP System Restore Point using NSIS during installation?

Thanks.

Maybe that helps you:

Using Custom Scripts to Configure System Restore

By using custom scripts that use Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI), you can change System Restore parameters by declaring the WMI class RegSR and changing specific object properties. By using WMI classes that are documented in the Software Development Kit (SDK), you can create custom scripts to perform the following tasks:

* Create restore points
* Enumerate restore points
* Restore the system
* Enable System Restore
* Disable System Restore
* Retrieve status about the last System Restore operation

For more information about WMI, see the Driver Development Kits link on the Web Resources page at http://www.microsoft.com/windows/reskits/webresources. On the Microsoft® Windows® Driver Development Kits Web page, expand Technology Areas, and then click WMI (Windows Management Instrumentation). For more information about System Restore scripting, see the Software Development Kit (SDK) information in the MSDN Library link and the Windows Script Technologies link on the Web Resources page at http://www.microsoft.com/windows/reskits/webresources.
