Good thing you knew to set a restore point, not too many people do that, btw.

I'm always paranoid about my computer, since I'd be kinda ****ed without it for a number of reasons.

I've got not only restore points, but also an external HD for backups, plus I regularly copy important files to Dropbox, Google drive and a bunch of USB's for various smaller things. I'm especially on the ball when it comes to making sure all of my own music files are safe and secure. I'd hate it if I lost any of that permanently.

I can't just run out and buy a new computer due to my economic situation, so yeah, I'm running chkdisc to see if there's something I should know about. I feel like that's a good idea.
