Try & Decide
I have WinXP Pro SP-3 & TI Home 2010, Build 7.160. I've used Try & Decide many times with excellent success. Recently, one of several WinXP updates screwed up my system fonts & the only cure was to recover to an earlier date. The screw up only happened after I rebooted, which was necessary to completely install the updates.
Here's my question:
If I install a WinXP update using Try & Decide, and I have to reboot (without making a choice to accept or reject changes), can I reject changes after a reboot?
i.e. my plan is to use Try & Decide, install an update, reboot, & then see if my fonts are screwed up. If not, I'll accept changes & repeat with each update. However, if my fonts are screwed up, I want to reject the update change.
My other alternative, much longer, is to do a complete backup, install an update, reboot, & then check the fonts. If OK, do another backup & repeat until I find which update is the problem, at which time Iwill recover to the earlier backup.
It takes about an hour to backup & verify my system & there are 9 updates, so I would prefer the former option, if it will work. Any advice,
Thanks, Phil

Thank you! I appreciate both your answer & advice. I've been resisting upgrading my OS, as well as Microsoft products, as I've been very used to the old versions & hate to have to relearn everything. I recently visited my son, who has the latest OS & Microsoft Word. Despite bringing my own templates, it took me 7 hours to accomplish 1 hour of work.
