Creating System Restore Points - Thoughts?

Is it "taboo" to programatically create system restore points? I would be doing this before I perform a software update. If there is a better method to create a restore point with just my software's files and data, please let me know. I would like a means by which I can get the user back to a known working state if everything goes kaput during an update (closes/kills the update app, power goes out, user pulls the plug, etc.) ``` private void CreateRestorePoint(string description) { ManagementScope oScope = new ManagementScope("\\\\localhost\\root\\default"); ManagementPath oPath = new ManagementPath("SystemRestore"); ObjectGetOptions oGetOp = new ObjectGetOptions(); ManagementClass oProcess = new ManagementClass(oScope, oPath, oGetOp); ManagementBaseObject oInParams = oProcess.GetMethodParameters("CreateRestorePoint"); oInParams["Description"] = description; oInParams["RestorePointType"] = 12; // MODIFY_SETTINGS oInParams["EventType"] = 100; ManagementBaseObject oOutParams = oProcess.InvokeMethod("CreateRestorePoint", oInParams, null); } ```
