When I went to create a Restore point, I noticed that the usage had changed from my 8% to 2%. What might have caused this and how to prevent it?

(I have 127GB free of 219)
Thank you

Check disk space on C: drive, maybe it's low on storage space.

Isn't that what the 127GB of 219GB reflects? Amount of storage space available? Thanks

Is that the C:// drive space 219GB?
If it is, maybe you allocated too much space and Windows revised the amount.
In any case, just keep an eye on it and if it happens again, post back to this thread.
