From: Tim Meddick on
If the folder "System Volume Information" appears on a drive, other than
the system drive, that you don't want to System Restore to be active on;
then simply uncheck the "box" for that drive (in the same place where you
would turn it off at).

Rather than turning off System Restore completely for all drives...

That way, the folder "System Volume Information" should disappear from
that drive once it has been "de-selected" on the System Restore page of
"System Properties".

If it does not disappear (but it really should) - just delete that folder
after de-activating System Restore on that drive.

It is a hidden folder so you could use the following command from a
"cmd.exe" (Command Prompt) :

RMDIR /S /Q "X:\System Volume Information"

....where you would replace the [X:] for the drive-letter of your "USB DOS
hard drive"
