per se, but it shares the same goal as many security programs, namely system integrity.
It’s always good to have a fallback position in case something goes wrong with your PC. Windows 10 provides options to reset your PC, but that wipes out all installed programs (you can choose not to erase personal files) with a fresh copy of Windows. A system restore, on the other hand, returns your PC to its last known good state.
This can be a helpful tool when you accidentally mess up your system, or you want to try to get rid of an annoying program that won’t uninstall. It can also help neutralize some mild forms of malware if they haven’t affected your system restore points, and then a deeper malware scan can usually get rid of what’s left.
