The restore feature allows users to revert their system settings and files to a previous configuration, which can be essential for recovering from issues such as system malfunctions or software misconfigurations. By restoring the system, users can often resolve problems without needing to fully reinstall the OS or lose personal data.
Other options like clean installation would not retain the installed applications and data, while updates typically apply patches rather than revert to a previous state.
