Memory recovering after working with Restore Points
Restore points are stored as shadow copies in a dedicated volume snapshot storage area.
Deleting restore points via Windows often removes the restore points themselves but may not immediately clear all the associated shadow copies.

It's unlikely that this will ever happen (based on my experience); therefore, it turns out that the only optimal way to restore the operating system to its original state is to reinstall system from scratch, followed by transferring personal files and reinstalling programs, but this is tedious and inconvenient. So, it would be better to recommend a decent, safe, and free cleaner (preferably from Microsoft Store). But also, I am not asking for memory recovery by deleting with third-party software random cookies or browser (or other software) temps using deep disk cleanup function, but only for a return to the status quo by deleting “unnecessary” files that appeared during manipulation with restore points.
