The "create your own restore point" does not allow you to choose the date. I want a specific date, is that possible to do? The initial restore point is set for today and the second restore point that I created is dated the 21st (which as you can see went back 5 days). This is why I asked if you could manually set the date.

You may find it more valuable to use Event Viewer to look for error codes and/or warnings when you play Facebook games.

Likewise, Task Manager, Performance Monitor, and Resource Monitor may help identify some app, process, or service causing the interference with loading and playing.

Open one or the other and watch for a while See what all is going on. Then, leaving the window open and to one side or the other, load and play Facebook games. Could be some bug in the games causing some resource to be overloaded or not released when it should be.

No need to immediately react and try some fix or change. Look for a consistent pattern and, even better yet, work to duplicate the problem at will.

Identify the cause first. Then look...

Not sure why you would wish to do so. Plus there may be some unforeseen consequences.

And I do believe that Windows does not permit changing the date/time stamp.

If you wish to incorporate some sort of date identification then at > System Protection > Create a restore point use the "Type desired name here" box to include the date identification you wish to use.

And let Windows 10 go ahead and automatically add its own date & time stamp as stated in the above the box.

My computer is having issues with loading and playing games on Facebook and this only started after I had an upgrade in my internet speed (I know that sounds strange and it seems that way to me also). But there have been no other changes that I know of and the reason why I want a specific date is because it all started slowing down and not playing right before the 19th of this month (when they came and made the upgrade).

"Create you own...." is NOW.
Other...the system creates its own, however you have it set up.

You can't create a restore point for some time in the past.

But there are much better ways to do that, with other software.
And as above...fix the actual issue.
