    Need an explanation (PCHEALTH)

    What is PCSCHD.EXE (PCHEALTH)? This is one program in WinME that I don't entirely understand.

    a. what is its purpose?
    b. can it help?
    c. can I disable this from task scheduler?

    all i know is that it's eating hard drive space.

    thanks in advance...

    PCHealth (pchschd.exe) This is a part of Windows Millennium which provides Restore functionality. !NEEDED!
    So it appears that it would be wise to leave it enabled...

    I believe WinME system restore will revert your comp back to the last saved image of your comp.. so if you got a virus, you restore to 1 day before (when you didnt have it) and everything you did from 1 day eariler to now will be gone.

    Scanreg only backs up the registry.
