I'm getting this information directly from Windows. When you retrieve a date from a restore point, you get back a very long number, like:

20080711015045

As you might be able to tell, that's year, month, day, hour, minute second. I simply split that number into its various parts, and use VBScript's DateValue and Weekday methods to get the day.

I just checked all my restore points in the System Restore utility versus what's listed in the Custom System Restore dialog, and they both match. If you review the System Restore utility with the mouse, or have someone sighted review your restore points, are they in fact different?

I just downloaded, and ran, the system restore script.
To me it seems there is a reporting error in the script It shows up all my restoring points, but the point that was created two days ago (July 9, 08), shows 'Sunday 9, 2008'. The point from yesterday (july 10), shows 'Tuesday 10, 2008'. It doesn't make any sense, either way I try to figure it out. Yesterday, according to my calendar, was a Thursday; not a Tuesday. Hence, the day before was Wensday, no Sunday at all. And, what about telling me which month we are looking at? Anyone else having this problem? Can the script be fixed?
