Why my system restore point isnt working properly?
According to my Dell assistant program, I have many many system restore points, but Windows 10 only show a handful, EVEN after I created a monthly task to create automatic system restore every month!

Welcome to the Dell Community @HelloThere12
Dell SupportAssist OS Recovery vs Windows System Restore
They are 2 different programs and are not linked to each other.
So of course, they would have different methods and times they would do Restore/Recovery points.
Best regards,

If Windows is failing to work properly because of hardware driver errors or errant startup applications or scripts, Windows System Restore may not function properly while running the operating system in normal mode. Hence, you may need to start the computer in Safe Mode, and then attempt to run Windows System Restore.
