# How long are restore points kept?

Storage Studio keeps the last **50 batches** and up to **30 days**, within a space limit on your drive that scales with how much free space it has. The five most recent are always kept, and older records tidy themselves away — you never need to manage them.

You can also delete an individual restore point with its **Delete** button.
