Acronis restores system disk back to clean but keeps all AppData searches

Thread needs solution

Acronis TIH 2012. Win7 Home Premium 64bit.

I wish to periodically restore my system drive (C:) back to exactly what it was when i made the image.

I do not want a single file keeping. Absolutely everything that was added since the image file was created is to be removed permanently.

I have just restored back to a 2013 image but the following folder contains a list of every file and folder I have ever opened fron 2013 up until yesterday.

The folder is: C:\Users\Administrator\Searches

It also contains a chronological list of every program and folder I have ever opened in the following folder:

C:\Users\Administrator\Searches\Indexed Locations

This computer was only connected to the internet once when I loaded the programs and is used only for work. The programs do more than I want and there is no need for me to update any of them - including Acronis.

How do I get Acronis to restore my system disk without Acronis hanging on to the above files and folders and their monotoring record of my every action ?

(I used 'Disk' mode for the restore.)
