Hi all,

Does anyone know how to clear the " Reliability and Performance Monitor"
logs. I know it keeps a record of problems etc from date of install, but
what if a user wanted to reset this figure to todays date, i.e to check a
new apps compatibility issues, or something like that.

Hi,

The logs (.dat files) are kept in the following folder:

C:\PrograData\Microsoft\RAC\PublishedData

I don't know if clearing those files cause any side-effects, as I've not yet tested it fully. If you plan to experiment at it, be sure to backup those files first.

reliability and performance monitor
Posted: 07-12-2007, 04:04 AM
Hello,
The reliability and performance monitor quit updating on 05/30/07. The
system stability chart(all dates) end on 05/30/07. I upgraded to Vista on
05/05/07. Haven't experienced any major problems since the upgrade. What
could be the problem?
Thanks!

Can you start it manually?

I am not on a vista machine now however I am sure it has to be a service.
Check to see it is
enabled. Change to MANUAL - REBOOT go back to Services and set to ENABLE and
reboot.
This should reset the registry entries to start the service.
