I have been having some boot issues since the last windows update. I thought to try System Restore to see if that would solve the problems. When I opened System Restore, all my recent restore points have been overridden with new points created by "Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable (x64) - 12.0.30501". MS Visual C++ is creating a new system restore point at a set interval (approximately every 62 minutes). So, the last 7 restore points (all that are shown) have been made over the past 7 hours, all by MS Visual C++.

How do I prevent this from happening, because if this continues, my System Restore will be rendered useless as any clean restore points will be overridden, as is the case now.
