Why each option
System Restore is a Windows feature that allows users to revert their computer's system files, installed applications, and registry settings to a previous point in time.
System Restore creates 'restore points' which are snapshots of critical system files and the Windows Registry at a specific date and time. If a system malfunction or instability occurs, System Restore allows the user to undo recent system changes by reverting to an earlier, stable restore point without affecting personal data files.
Safe Mode is a diagnostic startup option that loads Windows with a minimal set of drivers and services, primarily used for troubleshooting, not for rolling back system settings.
Disk Cloning involves creating an exact, sector-by-sector copy of an entire hard drive to another drive, typically for backup or migration purposes, not for restoring system settings to a past state on the original drive.
Disk Mirroring (RAID 1) is a data redundancy technique that writes identical data to two or more drives simultaneously to protect against drive failure, not a feature for restoring system settings to a past point in time.
