A product belonging to the Microsoft Windows Operating System, the rstrui.exe process is known as a System Restore Application, which is an EXE file that all PCs have. The rstrui.exe is a recovery center (System Restore Center) that aims to ease up scheduling of certain things like system restores or backups. This EXE file is used with a restore point that is created manually at any given time by the user, and the system can also automatically create restoration points. The stability and security of a user’s running computer is the responsibility of this EXE file and should thus be kept in check and be prevented from being terminated. Without the rstrui.exe file, a user’s PC could unlikely operate properly. This EXE file should remain intact within its place and should not be transferred or removed. There are no known dangers coming from this EXE file that would present harm to the user’s computer system. The rstrui.exe process (System Restore) does not affect documents, e-mails, photos or any other personal files, so it is unlikely to help a user restore deleted files. This means files must be restored from a backup.
